The Vulcan Centaur rocket, a never-before-flown model developed by United Launch Alliance, a joint venture by Boeing and Lockheed Martin
Can someone confirm who made the engines for this rocket? I seem to remember reading it was Bezos' Blue Origin company - if so, that's the first real and significant launch success I know of for Blue Origin. As much as I dislike Bezos, it's good to have viable competition for SpaceX.

Did they keep the warranty?

High pressure fuel leak and it’s having to use it’s orientation thrusters constantly to keep solar panels pointed toward the sun. Mission over, stick a fork in it.
Very sad, I was rooting for them.

NASA should get the money back if the mission fails.
Results or clawbacks.

The landers solar array is messing up. Kinda quick for a mission ending SNAFU.
Elon just makes this stuff look easy. FedGov needs to take lessons.

It’s good to see NASA productive, but hauling human remains to the Moon sounds like a very expensive vanity project.

Blue Origin made the first-stage engines.

Failure. Running out of fuel by Wednesday. Will end up spinning uselessly in space for eternity.
Way to go DEI appointees!!

The booster worked great on its maiden flight.
The lander is a dud.

Peregrine spacecraft separated from the rocket and began its slow journey to the lunar surface. If all goes according to plan, the lander could touch down on the moon on February 23. Peregrine. When it absolutely, positively has to be there in six weeks.
