After the New Shepard rocket vehicle carried Jeff Bezos, his brother Mark, Wally Funk and Oliver Daemen into space and its capsule glided safely back to the West Texas desert, the four crewmates emerge safely and are greeted by their jubilant families.
On the first passenger test flight for his space company Blue Origin, Jeff Bezos blasted into space from West Texas along with his brother Mark Bezos, 82-year-old aviator Wally Funk and 18-year-old physics student Oliver Daemen aboard the rocket New Shepard. NBC’s Tom Costello reports for TODAY from Corn Ranch, Texas.
Blue Origin’s New Shepard rocket sent up Jeff Bezos, his brother Mark, aviator Wally Funk, and student Oliver Daeman. Check out these photos and videos of the launch and landing.
See how these billionaire space ventures can vastly improve life on Earth. I support Bezos’ dream of mining asteroids and building rotational space habitats (O’neill Cylinders) that are mini Earths turned inside out to spread life through the cosmos. That said, I don’t like the Amazon Death Star approach to blasting small businesses out of business to build their empire. That said I do hope Blue Origin starts making progress toward orbit and all the best to SpaceX, Virgin Galactic, Virgin Orbit, Rocket Lab, and all the other space ventures out there!
