No.  At one point, SpaceX has ambitions that they would recover the second stage of their Falcon 9, but then scrapped this idea as too difficult (until their next family of rockets).  The reason is that the second stage is going much, much faster than the first stage, so it&#x27;s a completely different problem to bring it back.<p>Blue Origins is not trying to get into orbit, and therefore is nowhere close to dealing with the issues that would confront a return of the Falcon 9 second stage.  Quite the opposite; from a speed perspective, the Blue Origins rocket is more like an easy version of the already-recoverable Falcon 9 first stage (although as Bezos notes, some of the balancing issues may be harder by virtue of having a smaller moment arm).
