An auction for a ride into space next month alongside Jeff Bezos and his brother has ended with a winning $US28 million bid.
The Amazon founder's rocket company, Blue Origin, did not disclose the winner's name following the live online auction. The identity will be revealed in a couple weeks — closer to the brief up-and-down flight from West Texas on July 20, the 52nd anniversary of Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin's moon landing.with people on board, kicking off the company's space tourism business.
Fifteen previous test flights of the reusable rocket and capsule since 2015 — short hops lasting about 10 minutes — were all successful.
His ex wife ? 😆
Why write, ‘they have more money than sense’ …obviously they had great sense and foresight to achieve so much wealth. It’s their money to do what they want. You wouldn’t like someone to to tell you what you should have spent your money on. It’s their money.
Some people have more money than sense. Think how far $36 million would go to help the homeless etc.
Joke!
In space, no one can hear you scream… when your hit during the rich guy circle jerk.
If only that part of Stark could become reality.
how lovely it would be if Bezos, Musk et al could actually do something to help the people here on Earth instead of on their vanity projects. Do some good here on Earth, you areseholes.
If you were seated next to him, what would be the first question you would ask Jeff?
They'll literally only just make it to space and they'll be back 10 minutes later.
Into the sun
Bye Jeff. Dont come back
It was me. No. Not really.
No idea how to engage with this. My ex hubby was a NASA guy for 6 years - he got his NASA job at 26. Pretty cool! You met some really cool people going out to dinner near a NASA base.
Pretty sure his will is up to date
Hahahaha the worlds richest man just donated 28 million tax free to his personal nonprofit organization
How Many starving homeless people could this money have helped
Top Dumb.
Say hi to Jodie Foster elysium soon
A fool and his money…
It was me! I admit it. Although I didn’t pay as much as quoted. I just want to sit next to that beautifully bald bonce who thinks he’s Maverick from Top Gun and ask him why he continues to underpay his apparently valued staff (for the whole, very long journey).
I’d crowd fun 36 million to blast all three of them into space and leave those parasites there. But hey that’s just me 🤷♂️
One way?
More money than sense
