Additionally, it is also capable of carrying humans and customer payloads into a <a href="/wiki/Sub-orbital_spaceflight" title="Sub-orbital spaceflight">sub-orbital</a> trajectory. </p><p>New Shepard consists of a <a href="/wiki/Launch_vehicle" title="Launch vehicle">launch rocket</a> and a crew capsule. The capsule can be configured to house up to six passengers, cargo, or a combination of both. The launch rocket is powered by one <a href="/wiki/BE-3" title="BE-3">BE-3PM</a> engine, which sends the capsule above the <a href="/wiki/K%C3%A1rm%C3%A1n_line" title="Kármán line">Kármán line</a>, where passengers and cargo can experience a few minutes of <a href="/wiki/Weightlessness" title="Weightlessness">weightlessness</a> before the capsule returns to Earth. </p><p>The launch vehicle is designed to be fully reusable, with the capsule returning to Earth via three <a href="/wiki/Parachute" title="Parachute">parachutes</a> and a solid rocket motor. The rocket lands vertically on a landing pad 3.2<span class="nowrap">&#160;</span>km north of the launch pad.

Blue Engine 1, or BE-1, was the first rocket engine developed by Blue Origin and was used in the company's <i>Goddard</i> development vehicle. On the path to developing the New Shepard launch vehicle, a crew capsule was also needed, and design was begun on a <a href="/wiki/Space_capsule" title="Space capsule">space capsule</a> in the early 2000s. One development milestone along the way became public. On 19 October 2012, Blue Origin conducted a successful pad escape of a full-scale <a href="/wiki/Sub-orbital_spaceflight" title="Sub-orbital spaceflight">suborbital</a> crew capsule at its West Texas launch site. For the test, the capsule fired its pusher escape motor and launched from a launch vehicle simulator. The Crew Capsule traveled to an altitude of 703&#160;m (2,307&#160;ft) under active thrust vector control before descending safely by parachute to a soft landing 500&#160;m (1,630&#160;ft) downrange.<sup id="cite_ref-nsw20121022_4-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-nsw20121022-4"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>4<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup><sup id="cite_ref-5" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-5"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>5<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup> </p><p>In April 2015, Blue Origin announced that they had completed <a href="/wiki/Acceptance_testing" title="Acceptance testing">acceptance testing</a> of the <a href="/wiki/BE-3" title="BE-3">BE-3PM</a> engine that would power the New Shepard launch vehicle.

The flight was approximately 10 minutes and crossed the <a href="/wiki/K%C3%A1rm%C3%A1n_line" title="Kármán line">Kármán line</a>. New Shepard performed six crewed flights between July 2021 and August 2022, taking a mix of sponsored celebrities such as Wally Funk, <a href="/wiki/William_Shatner" title="William Shatner">William Shatner</a> as well as paying customers. New Shepard ticket sales brought in $50 million through June 2022. The second and third crewed missions of New Shepard took place in October and December 2021. The Fourth crewed flight happened in March 2022. On 4 June 2022, New Shepard completed its <a href="/wiki/Blue_Origin_NS-21" title="Blue Origin NS-21">fifth crewed mission launch</a> and the <a href="/wiki/Blue_Origin_NS-22" title="Blue Origin NS-22">sixth crewed flight</a> took place on 4 August 2022. In September 2022, an <a href="/wiki/Blue_Origin_NS-23" title="Blue Origin NS-23">uncrewed mission of the New Shepard</a> had an anomaly due to a failure of the BE-3PM main engine. The launch escape system triggered and the capsule landed safely. The remaining New Shepard launch vehicles were grounded pending an FAA investigation into the incident. After a six-month investigation, Blue Origin pinpointed the cause of the anomaly as a thermal-structure failure of the BE-3PM engine nozzle caused a thrust misalignment that triggered the capsule's emergency escape system to activate. Blue Origin said in its press release that New Shepard flights would resume as soon as possible. </p><p>The <a href="/wiki/Blue_Origin_NS-24" title="Blue Origin NS-24">return to flight mission</a> happened on 19 December 2023. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="New_Shepard_vehicles">New Shepard vehicles</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=New_Shepard&amp;action=edit&amp;section=2" title="Edit section: New Shepard vehicles"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <figure typeof="mw:File/Thumb"><a href="/wiki/File:Blue_Origin_M7.jpg" class="mw-file-description"><img src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/8/81/Blue_Origin_M7.jpg/246px-Blue_Origin_M7.jpg" decoding="async" width="246" height="164" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/8/81/Blue_Origin_M7.jpg/369px-Blue_Origin_M7.jpg 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/8/81/Blue_Origin_M7.jpg/492px-Blue_Origin_M7.jpg 2x" data-file-width="2500" data-file-height="1667" /></a><figcaption>The New Shepard Crew Capsule after a successful sub-orbital space flight. </figcaption></figure> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="New_Shepard_propulsion_modules">New Shepard propulsion modules</h3><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=New_Shepard&amp;action=edit&amp;section=3" title="Edit section: New Shepard propulsion modules"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>As of 2024<sup class="plainlinks noexcerpt noprint asof-tag update" style="display:none;"><a class="external text" href="https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=New_Shepard&amp;action=edit">&#91;update&#93;</a></sup>, there have been 5 propulsion modules built to date.

The combined vehicles launch vertically, accelerating for approximately two and a half minutes, before the engine cuts off. The capsule then separates from the booster to coast quietly into space.
