All seven engines performed nominally with a 38 second duration test including all seven engines operating at 100% thrust for 22 seconds.[/i]</BLOCKQUOTE> From CEO [URL=https://x.com/davill/status/1984094714283585842]David Gimp[/URL]: <BLOCKQUOTE>[i]We extended the hotfire duration this time to simulate the landing burn sequence by shutting down the non-gimballed engines after ramping down to 50 percent thrust, then shutting down the outboard gimballed engines while ramping the center engine to 80 percent thrust. This helps us understand fluid interactions between active and inactive engine feedlines during landing. Next, we will mate NASA's ESCAPADE payload to the launch vehicle and enter final preparations for launch.[/i]</BLOCKQUOTE> <center><iframe width="400" height="225" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/-9PqMvszmHU" title="Blue Origin New Glenn NG-2 static hotfire (10/30/25)" frameborder="0" allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share" referrerpolicy="strict-origin-when-cross-origin" allowfullscreen></iframe></center>[/B][/QUOTE]
