A Blue Origin New Glenn rocket experienced an anomaly during a ground test known as a hotfire, according to the company. Video captured from Cape Canaveral Space Force Station in Florida Thursday evening appears to show a rocket exploding on its launchpad. “All personnel are accounted for and safe,” Jeff Bezos, Blue Origin’s founder, said. “It’s too early to know the root cause but we’re already working to find it. Very rough day, but we’ll rebuild whatever needs rebuilding and get back to flying. It’s worth it.” 0:00 Blue Origin warns debris from explosion may show in water 0:27 CNN aviation correspondent Pete Muntean on rocket explosion and damage to pad 2:07 Elon Musk reacts 3:37 Fireball lights up Florida sky as rocket explodes 4:47 CNN safety analyst David Soucie on what could have happened Watch more CNN here: https://cnn.it/4kh5RPe #BlueOrigin #Rocket #News
