🇺🇸 SUPERCUT - BEZOS’ ROCKET GOES BOOM Blue Origin's New Glenn rocket, owned by Jeff Bezos, exploded on the launch pad in Florida. The rocket was supposed to launch a batch of satellites for Amazon's Leo network, which competes with Starlink. Amazon stated that the satellites were not yet on the rocket at the time of the explosion. Blue Origin stated that the rocket encountered an "anomaly." We can see that, lol. So, Starlink remains the only game in town for now
