  1. Yikes, so the first launch was supposed to be ESCAPADE and the second launch is probably going to be ESCAPADE. Why do they have such a slow turn over rate is it the engines?

    BO is targeting August for New Glenn’s second flight. Some folks are saying September is more probable than August. Eric Berger’s sources say Thanksgiving.

    It will be interesting to see who turns out to be right.
