Blue Origin, the rocket venture founded by Jeff Bezos, launched its space tourism rocket from its West Texas test site to the edge of Earth's atmosphere on Tuesday, marking the first test flight of the rocket in nearly a year

It marked the 13th test flight of New Shepard, as the vehicle is called, but it still has yet to fly with humans on board. Blue Origin wants to eventually send paying customers on brief joy rides to the edge of space, but the company has not started selling tickets, nor has it announced a price. So far, the vehicle has only carried science experiments and, at one point, a test dummy nicknamed Mannequin Skywalker.

I feel like I'd trust Virgin or SpaceX more. I didnt even know Bezos wanted to do space tourism.

Imagine the good that could be done if a fraction of this went to taxes.

YOU NEED TO BE REPORTING MORE STORIES ON VOTER SUPPRESSION

Instead of playing mad scientist, Bezos needs to pay his employees a living wage, with his rocket money.

Any thoughts on this matter ?

Johnson!!.... look it this sir it appears to be a giant....
