Jeff Bezos will be flying to space on the first crewed flight of the New Shepard, the rocket ship made by his space company, Blue Origin. The flight is scheduled for July 20th, just 15 days after he is set to resign as CEO of Amazon.

 

Well, a massive dick inside another massive dick, launching into space.

As someone else online said, "Wishing a safe flight to the crew, and the crew only."

Blue Origin is frustrating.  It’s owned by a man who has an online empire and more money than anyone else and all they can manage in over a decade is a little rocket that can get to the edge of the atmosphere.  Then they whine when they weren’t considered for a lunar lander contract.

A decade?  Try 20 years.

It does seem like they want to be included among the real launch companies like ULA and SpaceX but they haven't ever even shown something worth putting in the same discussion.

After SpaceX landed their first Falcon 9 in late 2015, Bezos tweeted at Musk "Welcome to the club".  Earlier that year, Blue Origin successfully launched and landed their New Shepard vehicle for the first time.  Ironically, SpaceX has launched and successfully landed their boosters almost 90 times since that date, and Blue Origin has landed their booster just 14 times.

Every rich person who spent their entire live looting the planet dry is now doing their damndest to escape Earth.

 

Curious.

 

These flights go into space, but not into orbit.  It's basically a 15 minute ride up and down.  If rich people want to waste their money on this stuff, that's fine.  Both BO and Virgin Galactic employ hundreds of engineers and technicians who get paid pretty well.
