ALS Congratulates Blue Origin for Successfully Launching Blue Ring Pathfinder on New Glenn
ALS supported Blue Origin’s Blue Ring Pathfinder payload on the first launch of New Glenn, working from its San Diego design/build facility and Blue Origin’s Merritt Island Rocket Factory.
Adaptive Launch Solutions (ALS) congratulates Blue Origin on the successful first launch of New Glenn on January 16, 2025, with the Blue Ring Pathfinder payload onboard. Blue Ring Pathfinder is a testament to Blue Origin In-Space Systems’ ability to conceive, plan, and complete a critical demonstration mission overcoming ambitious schedule and logistical challenges.
ALS was privileged to have Jason Smidt, Anthony Kyriakidis, and Lisa Jacobs attend the inaugural launch. Many of ALS’s team members supported Atlas launches from Launch Complex 36 over their careers.
ALS is proud to have supported Pathfinder during the historic first launch of New Glenn. Our engineering, operations, and quality management professionals supported Blue Origin from our San Diego design/build facility and at Blue Origin’s Merritt Island Rocket Factory. Blue Ring provides the end-to-end services needed to access near and Cislunar space for the benefit of earth.
It was thrilling to watch New Glenn launch from the same launch complex where I witnessed my first rocket launch. I look forward to witnessing Blue Origin achieve its long-term vision to build a road to space for the benefit of Earth.
