“[The mannequin] probably peaked at 10 Gs,” said Blue Origin’s Ariane Cornell, during the webcast. Blue Origin has successfully completed a live separation of the crew capsule from its rocket booster. The Jeff Bezos-founded company also saw the New Shepard's rocket capsule sent higher than ever before, after it fired its escape motor at the correct time. In addition to SpaceX's successful launch, another private spaceflight company, United Launch Alliance, is scheduled for liftoff on Tuesday with an Atlas V rocket. Some 20,000 viewers watched the launch on the company's live stream.
