This is a much simpler rocket than the Falcon 9. For one, it's suborbital. Its flights are so much simpler than the full orbital injections and hypersonic reentries the Falcon flies.

A quick list of things Blue Origin hasn't done yet:

- Sent anything to orbit (much less paying cargo)

- Sent anything to geosyncronous orbit

- Landed a ship coming back from orbit

- Docked with the ISS
