Blue Origin’s powerful BE-4 engine is more than four years late–here’s why
- MisterBiggs 5y agoBlue Origin has been a very sore loser recently so it's very hard to root for them. However, SpaceX wouldn't be here without NASA taking a big risk on them and BO being given a chance by ULA has certainly helped them along. So I hope for the sake of future space startups that BO succeeds so that the established players will still be willing to take similar risks.
