Program watch / The frontier

Where the future is being built.

Mission-control trackers for the rockets where every campaign is its own story. Starship remains in readiness watch, while New Glenn is in recovery watch for verified incident, pad repair, and return-campaign updates.

How readiness works

For active launch campaigns, we aggregate public hardware, regulatory, recovery, and stream signals into one weighted score. Hardware activity carries the most weight; weather and stream confidence rise late.

What this is not

Not an official launch probability from SpaceX or Blue Origin. When a program is recovering from a major incident, we replace the score with verified recovery updates until launch-watch coverage is appropriate again.

When it gets hot

Readiness climbs once static fires complete, hazard notices publish, and an official livestream is posted. Recovery pages stay focused on confirmed investigation, repair, and pad status information.
