Essentially, the rocket&#8217;s main engine nozzle sustained temperatures that were higher than anticipated, leading to an explosion of the rocket.<\/p>\n<p>The accident occurred at 1 minute and 4 seconds into a research flight that launched on September 12, 2022. The emergency escape system performed as intended, rapidly pulling the spacecraft away from the disintegrating rocket. Had a crew been on board this flight, they would have experienced a significant jolt and some high gravitational forces before landing safely in the West Texas desert.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/arstechnica.com\/?p=1926972#p3\">Read 7 remaining paragraphs<\/a> | <a href=\"https:\/\/arstechnica.com\/?p=1926972&amp;comments=1\">Comments<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&#013;<br \/>\n&#013;<br \/>\nSource: Ars Technica &#8211; <a href=\"https:\/\/arstechnica.com\/?p=1926972\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Blue Origin provides a detailed analysis of its launch failure<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Enlarge \/ The emergency escape system is seen firing on the New Shepard spacecraft Monday morning after its rocket was lost.
