Elon Musk offered words of support to Jeff Bezos after a Blue Origin rocket exploded during a test on May 28 marking another setback for the company’s New Glenn launch program. The incident occurred during a hot-fire engine test at the launch pad and produced a large fireball that was visible from nearby communities in Florida.

The New Glenn rocket experienced an "anomaly", the company said, exploding during a test.

Blue Origin founder and billionaire Jeff Bezos said it was a ”very rough day” for the company, but it was too early to know the “root cause” of the incident.

The explosion is likely a major setback for Jeff Bezos' spaceflight company, and its attempt to compete with SpaceX.
