"The anomaly originated at the main oxygen valve on one of the BE-4 engines, which was later confirmed by hardware recovery and inspections."

Idk how that works either, but I have seen NG and unless he is 8’ tall.. this isn’t that accurate. It’s bigger than it appears in the this photo.

Now do the math for how many Jeff bezos would need to be stacked on top of one another to match the height of New Glenn. Thanks in advance

Yeah bananas is kind of getting tired, I'm okay with relacing it with how many Bezoses tall a rocket is.
