The two companies supporting each other in launching their respective missions seem to be cooling off the tense atmosphere of competition between Blue Origin and Virgin Galactic, which is currently actively doing space tourism.
Blue Origin will execute the founder of the first manned mission transport company, Jeff Bezos. Just like Virgin Galactic who brought in their founder Richard Branson some time ago.
In addition to Bezos, there were three other passengers at New Shepard, namely his brother Mark Bezos, 82 -year -old senior pilot Wally Funk, and 18 -year -old physics student Oliver Daemen.
Prior to tonight’s flight, Blue Origin had conducted 15 unmanned tests, with one partial failure when the passenger capsule landed safely, but the booster rocket fell.
