NASA's ESCAPADE mission has initiated its journey as two identical spacecraft, designed to study Mars' magnetosphere, separated and deployed from Blue Origin's New Glenn upper stage. Both probes will spend the next year in a unique Earth-bound orbit before executing a trans-Mars injection burn in November 2026, employing the Oberth Effect to maximize mission fuel efficiency. The paired orb
