This second flight of the New Glenn rocket marked a significant milestone with the successful recovery of its booster, which landed upright on an offshore barge. The twin Escapade orbiters will spend a year near Earth before using a gravity assist to reach Mars in 2027, where they will study the planet's upper atmosphere and magnetic fields.
