Blue Origin, the space company owned by Jeff Bezos, successfully launched its New Glenn rocket from Florida.

The rocket carried two NASA spacecraft deployed to Mars. The Escapade satellites will take 22 months to reach Mars and will orbit the planet to measure its atmosphere and magnetic field.

The reusable booster powering New Glenn also separated from the rocket’s upper stage and landed on a floating landing pad in the Atlantic Ocean, marking a successful first for Blue Origin.

Elon Musk’s company SpaceX was the first to achieve this feat for an orbital rocket in 2015, although Blue Origin followed suit.
