Blue Origin’s New Glenn to Send Club for the Future Digital Postcards to Space
Hello, space enthusiasts! We are thrilled to announce that the inaugural mission of New Glenn, Blue Origin's reusable orbital rocket, is flying Club for the Future digital postcards! Previously flown to space and back by Blue Origin's New Shepard suborbital rocket during the NS-25, NS-26, and NS-27 missions, the digital postcards will now journey on the historic first New Glenn (NG-1) flight.
New Glenn's fairing (the protective shell surrounding the rocket's payload) will carry a microSD card with digital postcards created by students and space enthusiasts. The flash drive also includes mission patches made by children in Scotland in collaboration with the Argyll and Bute Council.
“Club for the Future's mission is to inspire and mobilize students to pursue careers in STEAM (science, technology, engineering, arts, and math) for the benefit of Earth,” said Heather Nelson, Director, Club for the Future. “By sending digital postcards to space and back on New Glenn and New Shepard, we are fostering a sense of curiosity and excitement about the space industry.”
The NG-1 digital postcards will be displayed in the Club for the Future digital postcard gallery. Create your own digital postcard to send on future missions here: Draw | Club for the Future.
