Blue Origin announced Constellation Park, a new manufacturing campus in Hutto, Texas, that will serve as a central production hub for several of the company's satellite and communications programs. The multi-facility complex will span 1.3 million square feet and add more than 2,000 new jobs over the next decade.

The campus builds on Blue Origin's presence in Texas, which dates back nearly 20 years to the establishment of Launch Site One in 2006. The company currently employs more than 550 people in the state and framed Constellation Park as an expansion of that longstanding footprint.

Constellation Park will support manufacturing for TeraWave, Blue Origin's satellite communications network that the company says delivers up to 6 terabits per second of symmetrical data anywhere on Earth, serving enterprise, data center, and government users that depend on resilient global connectivity. The facility will also expand production for Quartz, a global ground communications network featuring 3.7-meter aperture antennas that enable S-band and X-band connectivity for low Earth orbit missions. In addition, the campus will house manufacturing for key subsystems, including solar arrays, avionics, telecommunications, and other satellite hardware.

"Texas has long understood what it takes to lead in space exploration," said Blue Origin CEO Dave Limp. "We're proud to grow our footprint here in Texas, tap into the world-class talent this state has to offer, and help ensure America remains the leader in space innovation."

Governor Abbott tied the investment to the state's manufacturing and space sectors. "Texas is the launchpad to a future of possibilities," he said. "Blue Origin's sizeable expansion of their investment in Texas in support of their satellite communications network is testament to the state's leadership in the advanced manufacturing and space industries. Texas offers innovative technology leaders the space, speed, and talent needed to rapidly scale operations."

The company said the expansion will further strengthen Texas' aerospace industry and drive growth among local suppliers and supporting businesses. The more than 2,000 new manufacturing and related jobs are set to be added over the next 10 years.

The over 2,000 jobs at Constellation Park are planned over the coming decade, alongside continued production for the TeraWave and Quartz programs housed at the new campus.
