Space Launch Complex 36 (SLC-36)

Space Launch Complex 36 (LC-36) at Cape Canaveral Space Force Station is Blue Origin’s New Glenn launch complex. LC-36A remains the operational home for New Glenn’s 7x2 vehicle, while Blue Origin began constructing LC-36B in August 2026 for the 9x4 vehicle, alongside new vertical- and payload-processing infrastructure. A May 28, 2026 New Glenn integrated-launch-vehicle hotfire anomaly damaged the lightning tower, transporter-erector and hydraulic cylinders at the site; recovery, major repairs and systems-integration work are continuing. This is a secure launch and construction facility, not a general walk-in visitor attraction; confirm current launch status and access with Blue Origin and Space Launch Delta 45. Facility reference: Cape Canaveral Space Force Station, Florida, United States.
