Blue Origin Launches Six Tourists on 13th Passenger Flight
- Blue Origin launched six tourists on its 13th suborbital passenger flight from Launch Site One in West Texas on June 29, 2025.
- The launch occurred after two earlier attempts on June 21 and 22 were delayed due to high winds and cloud cover affecting safety conditions.
- Among the six passengers were spouses Carl and Allie Kuehner, disbarred lawyer Owolabi Salis, and three other professionals, all of whom experienced roughly three minutes of weightlessness during the flight.
- The flight reached a peak altitude of 105 kilometers, surpassing the Kármán Line, lasted ten minutes, and featured the closest capsule landing to the booster pad in Blue Origin's history.
- With this mission, Blue Origin reached a milestone of 70 astronauts, and since Jeff Bezos' inaugural July 2021 journey, a total of 74 passengers have experienced suborbital space tourism, highlighting ongoing interest in these flights.
