Source-derived summary

Landing Platform Vessel 1 (LPV1), named Jacklyn, is a barge which was manufactured for Blue Origin in 2024 for use as a landing platform ship. It entered service in January 2025 for the New Glenn launch vehicle.

The LPV1 barge replaced the ship, also named Jacklyn, that Blue Origin had purchased in 2018 and intended to use as a landing platform vessel until 2022, when Blue Origin scrapped it.

On 13 November 2025, on the second flight of New Glenn, NG-2, booster GS1-2 (Never Tell Me The Odds) successfully landed on Jacklyn, carrying two ESCAPADE satellites and a ViaSat payload. It was reused for the third flight (NG-3) and landed a second time.

History

Landing Platform Vessel 1 (LPV1) is a specialized barge designed to support Blue Origin's New Glenn rocket launches. It was laid down at a shipyard in Romania in February 2023 and launched in January 2024. The partially completed vessel was towed to Damen Shipyards in Brest, France for finishing works and commissioning in April 2024. Before being named LPV1, it carried the yard identification Damen Mangalia 522520. After brief sea trials, the vessel departed Brest for Florida in August 2024.

Editorial analysis

Why this record matters

The subject matters to the general reference register because the source frames it as landing barge operated by Blue Origin. Its deeper value depends on whether names, dates, institutions and citations support that framing.

Evidence profile

The citation trail is more important than the brevity of the summary: it shows where individual claims can be examined in context. The source revision retrieved here is dated Sep 24, 2026. The linked authority identifier is Q127040265. None of the 0 selected statements returned an explicit reference. The first chronological checks are 2024, 2025, 2018 and 2022.

Critical limits

Overview language is designed for orientation and should not be treated as a substitute for the evidence cited beneath it. The lead is largely declarative, so disagreement and counter-evidence require a deliberate search beyond the opening account. Authority statements aid reconciliation but still require their own references, qualifiers and ranks to be checked.

How to read it

Use the entry as an orientation point, then follow its citations and revision history. Names, dates and institutional relationships should be checked against the original record.
