Pointy end up ⬆️ Testing is underway and close to completing qualification. This Neutron assembly represents the top of Stage 1 and includes the hungry hippo reusable fairing, canards, and the extended interstage with some of the most complex mechanical systems that exist on the vehicle. Next stop: the U.S. East Coast for integration with the rest of the rocket.

That's one hungry-looking hippo inside Neutron's Assembly & Integration Complex in Virginia. Our carbon composite reusable fairing - the first of its kind! - is undergoing final fluids and avionics integration, end-to-end systems testing, and installation of its canards and thermal protection system.

Neutron’s Hungry Hippo fairing is alive. These two halves remain attached to Neutron’s first stage, opening up to let the second stage and payload through, before closing up again and landing back on Earth ready for reuse.

Successful stage separation test campaign ✅ We're validating stage separation for Neutron, one of the most novel rocket separation systems ever designed. From sep system design, component testing and qualification, GSE design, manufacturing, commissioning, and operations planning through to test execution - we're proving out the technology behind one of Neutron's most critical events for mission success. Up next: moving into intentional off-nominal separation events with non-flight test articles to further push the system's resilience.

Cool video of New Glenn’s fairing re-entry. For this flight we installed an exo-atmospheric reaction control system (RCS) in the fairing to control re-entry and enable recovery of the fairing. We’re planning a parachute recovery later this year, and the data from these fairings gives us the learnings needed to develop and refine that capability.

🛡️🛰️ The payload fairing (PLF) shields satellites from atmospheric fury during a rocket's ascent. But once we hit the vacuum of space, this massive structure must execute a flawless separation as Vikram-1 continues its journey to orbit. ✅ After countless iterations and tireless work, our team has successfully validated the system! The PLF separation mechanism is now ready for launch. 🚀✨
