Blue Origin rocket launch LIVE – Jeff Bezos’ spacecraft set to takeoff tomorrow after Pete Davidson pulled out of trip

BLUE Origin’s latest launch is set to take place tomorrow morning after it was forced to delay the mission earlier this week.

The US company, which is the brainchild of billionaire Amazon founder Jeff Bezos, delayed the fourth crewed flight of its New Shepard vehicle to Thursday, March 31.

Blue Origin’s launch is scheduled to take place Thursday at 9.30am ET (14.30 BST; 8.30am local time in Texas).

The mission was initially set for March 23 with a crew of six including comedian Pete Davidson.

Davidson, who is currently dating Kim Kardashian, had to pull out of the flight after the date was pushed back.

The space squad on board is now made up of Party America CEO Marty Allen, husband and wife Sharon and Marc Hagle, entrepreneur Jim Kitchen, Blue Origin’s Gary Lai, and Dr George Nield, who is president of Commercial Space Technologies.
