Blue Origin’s NS-29 mission will simulate the Moon’s gravity, testing 30 payloads focused on lunar tech. In partnership with NASA, the flight will provide critical data on six lunar technology areas: in-situ resource utilization, dust mitigation, habitation systems, sensors, small spacecraft, and entry descent/landing. For the first time, the New Shepard crew capsule will spin at 11 RPM, simulating lunar gravity, helping to lower the cost of space access. This testing supports NASA’s Artemis program, advancing innovation for future lunar exploration.
