Jeff Bezos' new rocket,关键字2 taller than the Statue of Liberty, has blasted into space.

The giant 320-foot-tall New Glenn rocket, named for legendary U.S. astronaut John Glenn, achieved a successful maiden launch after launching from Cape Canaveral Space Force Station just after 2 a.m. ET on Jan. 16, 2025. The Blue Origin rocket, designed to have a reusable first stage powered by seven powerful engines, provides valuable competition in the rapidly-evolving rocket industry.

The rocket has been in development for over a decade. So this was a much anticipated launch.
