Jeff Bezos' Blue Origin to launch next crewed mission on June 21: Timings, crew members, how to watch livestream and other details

Blue Origin , the private space company founded by Jeff Bezos, is set to launch its next human spaceflight, mission NS-33, on Saturday – June 21. The launch is scheduled for 9:30 a.m. ET (7pm IST) from Launch Site One, the company's facility in West Texas near Van Horn. The flight will mark the 13th crewed mission for Blue Origin's New Shepard rocket, which has been used to send passengers on brief suborbital trips beyond the edge of space. To date, the program has flown 64 humans and more than 175 scientific payloads above the Kármán line, the internationally recognized boundary of space. Blue Origin's Mission NS-33 Flight details New Shepard flights typically last around 11 minutes. As mentioned above, the rocket carries its crew capsule past the Kármán line offering a few minutes of weightlessness and views of Earth from more than 100 kilometers above the surface. The capsule then returns to Earth under parachutes, while the booster lands separately. Blue Origin's Mission NS-33: How to watch livestream A livestream of the launch will be available on Blue Origin's website. The telecast will begin about 30 minutes before the flight liftoff. Those interested can catch the live updates on Blue Origin's website. Blue Origin's Mission NS-33 Crew details Six passengers will take part in the NS-33 mission . They are: Allie Kuehner, an environmental advocate and board member of the nonprofit Nature is Nonpartisan Carl Kuehner, chairman of Building and Land Technology, a real estate investment and management firm Leland Larson, a philanthropist and former CEO of family-owned transportation businesses Freddie Rescigno Jr., founder and CEO of electrical company Commodity Cables Owolabi Salis, an attorney and financial consultant Jim Sitkin, a retired lawyer based in California Blue Origin's spaceflight history Blue Origin launched its first crewed mission in July 2021, with Jeff Bezos himself on board. Since then, the company has conducted 12 additional human flights. New Shepard is designed for space tourism and suborbital research, making it a key part of Blue Origin's business model as competition in the space tourism industry increases. The company is also developing the larger New Glenn rocket for future orbital missions. That rocket completed its first test flight in early 2025. More crewed New Shepard flights are expected later in 2025, as the company expands access to suborbital space tourism. Vivo T4 Ultra: Beautiful Outside, Powerful Inside AI Masterclass for Students.

Delhivery launches intracity delivery service to take on Uber, Rapido

Delhivery, India's largest integrated logistics provider, has entered the short-haul parcel delivery segment with the launch of its on-demand intracity shipping service. Branded as Delhivery Direct, the service is currently operational in Delhi-NCR and Bengaluru, the company said in a regulatory filing on Friday. The move brings Delhivery into direct competition with players such as Uber, Rapido and Porter in the fast-growing market for same-city deliveries. Delhivery Direct allows customers to schedule local deliveries through its mobile app, with pickup promised within 15 minutes of booking. The service handles both small parcels and larger consignments using two-wheelers, three-wheelers and four-wheelers. It was earlier piloted in Ahmedabad before being officially rolled out in Delhi and Bengaluru. Describing the launch as a natural extension of the company's logistics network, Sahil Barua, managing director and CEO, said, 'We are now fully live with Delhivery Direct across NCR and Bengaluru—two of the largest markets for on-demand intracity service in India—and will rapidly expand to key metros.' The company is aiming to tap into the growing same-day delivery market, driven by the rise of quick-commerce platforms delivering groceries, gadgets and other essentials in under 10 minutes. This also marks a strategic shift for the logistics firm, as third-party players such as Delhivery diversify their services in response to intensifying competition in long-haul freight. E-commerce majors like Amazon and Flipkart have increasingly turned to their in-house logistics arms. 'Delhivery Direct not only simplifies shipping for users, but also significantly benefits riders and drivers by providing consistent earning opportunities and flexible working hours through Delhivery's extensive network,' the company said. The Delhivery Direct App is available on Google Play and the Apple App Store.
