Blue Origin Launches Six Tourists on 13th Passenger Flight

On June 29, 2025, Blue Origin’s New Shepard completed its 13th crewed and 33rd overall flight, carrying six passengers to suborbital space from West Texas.
Amid a push to expand civilian access, Blue Origin's third crewed mission in three months highlights its focus on rapid, reusable flights to lead commercial space tourism.
According to flight logs, the hydrogen-fueled BE-3 engine burned for about 2.5 minutes, reaching 106 km altitude, with the booster performing a powered landing minutes after liftoff.
Blue Origin's 70th human spaceflight, the 750th person overall, underscores its leadership amid Virgin Galactic's hiatus.
Blue Origin’s CEO, Dave Limp, highlights ongoing demand for space tourism, with Virgin Galactic planning to resume flights next year and Blue Origin developing New Glenn and Blue Moon to meet this insatiable interest.
