Blue Origin experienced the landing of a manned capsule with a refused parachute

Blue Origin, the founder of Amazon, Jeff Bezos for the fourth time, successfully experienced a reusable suborbital spacecraft New Shepard.

A feature of the next launch was a test of the refusal of one of the parachutes used to land the capsule, in which, according to designers, the pilots and passengers of the ship should be.

According to preliminary data, the capsule landed without damage on two parachutes instead of three. Gizmodo notes that instead of the planned, according to the launch commentators, the landing speed of 1-2 miles per hour of the capsule landed at a speed of about 20 miles per hour (32 kilometers per hour).

• Blue Origin is developing a program of manned flights to suborbital height with multiple use of the rocket. For the first time, the company managed to put the New Shepard launch vehicle vertically in November 2015.
