Jeff Bezos' rocket company, Blue Origin, is taking over a historic NASA facility

New York Jeff Bezos' rocket company, Blue Origin, is taking over a historic NASA facility — and it's only the latest example of a private"new space" company slapping its logo on former space agency territory.

NASA said in a press release Wednesday that it signed an agreement for Blue Origin to use its rocket engine test site in Huntsville, Alabama. The deal"signals rocketing growth of commercial space," NASA said in a statement.The Huntsville site once hosted tests of the massive engines that powered the Saturn V rocket, which landed astronauts on the moon a half-century ago. It was later used to test engines for NASA's space shuttle program. The facility has been dormant since 1998.

Motherfucker has a rocket company. We are actually living during the time of ridiculous James Bond villains.

Wow!

So is Jeff Bezos really just an alien trying to get home and save his world, ala “ The Man Who Fell To Earth”? Or did he watch that movie a few too many times?

Theres nothing original about blue. Might as well be called vanulla origins...

How can we improve our home first, like accelerated biology, 1 ensemble team to accelerate process based pollution - space inception thinking

The message that seems to resonate in space funding is... We want a space defense but we want the private sector to get us there for everything else. I worry that NASA is not held in the highest esteem and given the necessary resources to accomplish its mission.

He's no Elon Musk.....

And you can do that when Amazon pays ' zero' taxes... WTF? RealJamesWoods realDonaldTrump BillOReilly FoxNews
