after successful test

Blue Origin, the spaceflight company founded by Amazon CEO Jeff Bezos, revealed that its lunar-landing engine, the BE-7, passed its fourth test successfully on Friday.

Blue Origin is in the running to help operate NASA's next mission to the moon, Artemis 3, which aims to make history with the first woman to walk on the moon, according to NASA.

"This is the engine that will take the first woman to the surface of the Moon," Bezos wrote Friday in an Instagram post, which showed the BE-7 rocket engine firing up.

But Bezos' Blue Origin isn't the only space company vying to win NASA's favor. Two other companies - Dynetics and SpaceX, which is owned by Tesla CEO Elon Musk - are also competing for the honor.
