Good luck trying to find the New Glenn rocket. 💙🚀

We NEED to talk about the huge milestone that recently took place in the space industry: @blueorigin reaching orbit! New Glenn is more than five times the size of New Shepard, making this a really big deal! New Shepard, the suborbital vehicle that @thespacegal flew into space, is named after Alan Shepard, the first American in space. Since he took off on a suborbital ship, New Shepard is also a suborbital vehicle.

New Glenn, on the other hand, is named after John Glenn, the first American to orbit the Earth, making this an orbital vehicle. Orbital launches in the United States are expected to grow exponentially, further strengthening the country’s competitive position globally, especially thanks to this historic launch!

As part of the Bold Leadership Download series, members of our community had the opportunity to hear two trailblazing distinguished alumni - Jeannie Leavitt and Tim Crain - share their pathway to success and the failures that lit their way. In conversation with the Texas Rocket Engineering Lab, they discussed themes of entrepreneurship, engineering and grit.

Thank you to both of these alumni for taking the time to return to campus and inspire our students! 🤘

"What truly stood out to me was how Leavitt and Crain transformed a large lecture hall into an environment that felt personal and welcoming. Their ability to balance humor with meaningful insights was remarkable — they kept the atmosphere light with jokes while delivering invaluable advice. By sharing personal anecdotes, they connected with us as students, linking our current experiences to the skills and perspectives that will shape our future careers." - @maritza_._miranda, an ASE senior who attended the talk
