Bezos, who founded Blue Origin in 2000 with the goal of using some of his Amazon fortune to develop rocket technology for a variety of business purposes, will take his extraterrestrial journey just nine days after fellow billionaire and rocket company founder Richard Branson took his own trip.But Bezos' flight, and the technology his company developed to get him there, is far different than Branson's.
The rocket, flying separately after having detached from the human-carrying capsule, will then re-ignite its engines and use its on-board computers to execute a pinpoint, upright landing. The booster landing looks similar to what SpaceX does with its Falcon 9 rockets, though those rockets are far more powerful than New Shepard and — yes — more prone to exploding on impact.A smattering of media will also be allowed in to watch the launch and interview Bezos and the other passengers after landing.
RachCrane Why are you handing out free advertising to billionaires like it’s candy on Halloween?
RachCrane Is CNN covering any of the M4A marches on July 24th? M4M4ALL related to the pandemic, no? Our nation’s healthcare is not important enough to cover? Million of poor sick struggling families don’t care about billionaires in space
RachCrane His wife is kinda hot, not gonna lie.

RachCrane Billionaire vanity project. Shameful waste of many when we have Americans hungry and homeless. TaxTheRich
RachCrane He should pay more tax
RachCrane No one gives a shit. Cover something that actually matters and affects our country/world.
RachCrane Did they intentionally make the tip of the rocket the same shape as Bezos’ head, or is that simply ideal rocket engineering?
With so much human suffering and so much money....
Wait. Did he order the 'space' vehicle from the same place as my non working Amazon security camera?
Wouldn’t it be nice if he could donate his Money to people who are suffering this time rather than his emanating Branson.
F Bezos and all his greed. I hope it blows up just after takeoff. 🤷🏻♀️
This is what you get when rich Liberals have too much time on their hands.

The rich have fun up in the sky while the poor are dying on Earth. NASA should tell us how much can be spent in such touristic projects before the climate on Earth is totally destroyed.

This one might not be great 🙄
All my random Amazon monetary purchases throughout the pandemic contributed to this. 🚀💸
Priorities, Jeff, ever hear about them? Thank God for two day delivery.
Who is the next in line? Who is then the richest man in the world when JeffBezos is gone for 11 minutes?
