These are launches under BO’s own name in The Space Devs’ Launch Library. They don’t count missions or payloads. A spacecraft that flew on someone else’s rocket counts for the operator that flew it.

Operator or customer

An operator owns the rocket and runs the count, and the launch schedule filters by operator. A customer pays for the mission, supplies the payload and buys the ride. Some organisations are both. Below, BO is counted in whichever role the current schedule gives it.

No scheduled flight names BO with someone else flying it.

How we count it: a scheduled launch counts as a customer flight when this organisation’s name or abbreviation is in the launch name, mission name or programme, and someone else is flying it. We don’t search mission descriptions, and we only see the schedule as far as it goes, which is 2039-12-31 00:00:00Z. So treat both counts as a minimum.

The label on each flight says how exact its launch time is. If the date is only known to the month, you’ll see the month and no countdown. A weather go-probability only shows when Launch Library has one for that flight. EveryLaunch doesn’t work it out.

Common questions

How many launches has Blue Origin flown?
Blue Origin has flown 41 launches under its own name. 39 succeeded and 2 failed. That counts launches it flew itself, not missions or payloads it contributed to.
What is Blue Origin's success rate?
95.1%. That's 39 successful flights out of 41 attempts.
When is Blue Origin's next launch?
New Glenn | Amazon Leo (LN-01), set for 2026 from Launch Complex 36A. Launch Library files only the year, so the date is a placeholder. Launch times are no-earlier-than targets and can move.
Does Blue Origin fly its own rockets, or buy launches from another operator?
Blue Origin has flown 41 launches under its own name. It's the operator on 30 scheduled flights. An operator owns the rocket and runs the count. A customer pays for the mission, supplies the payload and buys the ride. The operator filter on the launch schedule only lists operators, so a well-known agency can own a mission and still not show up there.
Where is Blue Origin based?
United States of America. Launch Library lists it as a commercial operator, founded in 2000.
