Blue Origin launches Blue Ring multi-purpose space platform: design payload 6600 pounds, planned 2025 launch

CTOnews.com, October 18 (Xinhua)-- Blue Origin recently issued a press release showing a new multi-purpose space platform, Blue Ring, that can help humans build and maintain engineering projects in outer space.

Blue Ring is designed to orbit not only around the earth, but also around the moon, positioning other space projects to provide construction and logistical support.

Blue Ring acts as a "mobile platform", which can not only carry and transport other spacecraft, but also provide "cloud computing" function in space through relay data.

Blue Origin Vice President Lars Hoffman (Lars Hoffman) told Aviation Weekly that Blue Ring can provide customers with more "dynamic" space program service support in different orbits.

Hoffman said the Blue Ring has powerful features and energy, and the Blue Ring can carry more than 6600 pounds of payloads (CTOnews.com Note: about 2996.4 kilograms) and is scheduled for launch in 2025.
