Lots of interesting news this morning from Blue Origin's normally quiet press room. Also of note is a series of videos showing progress at their Cape Canaveral rocket factory & launch facility:

The stage 1 simulator, and integration & test facilities: https://twitter.com/blueorigin/status/1364968313047162880?s=...

"Tank Cleaning and Testing" facility: https://twitter.com/blueorigin/status/1364968720364429317?s=...

Launch Complex 36: https://twitter.com/blueorigin/status/1364969291746074628?s=...

It's exciting to see BO making progress on their campaign to catch SpaceX in the commercial launch space. I'm curious whether the slow, deliberative approach they show here will pay off in reliability, ability to scale, etc once they start putting kgs in orbit.
