Jeff Bezos, the founder of Blue Origin, and Richard Branson, the founder of Virgin Galactic, are in a head-to-head race to get into space The billionaire founders of Blue Origin and Virgin Galactic will both be on board as the companies send their vessels to the edge of space. But their spacecraft, flight logistics and altitudes have some differences.

@JosheeBwoiمنذ 3 سنوات The key difference is actually in the landing. Virgin Galactic will land smoothly like an airplane. Blue Origin will eject all passengers to land just id="hidden1" class="buttons"> on time at their own doorsteps. Their families will instantly receive a notification indicating "delivered". ....وسعت 1985

@julianchee2894منذ 3 سنوات I’d take Virgin Galactic any day. I’d rather have a 90 minute flight over a 10 minute hop for $250,000 420

@dylanp_ayz8016منذ 3 سنوات Bezos should be a lawyer:
Avoids paying taxes, Avoids FAA inspection for safety, Avoids government oversight. 270

@

@14rs2منذ 3 سنوات Of the two of them I think I’d rather go on a Virgin Galactic flight. You have way more time to take it all in rather than blue origin that feels like it’s over in a few moments 20

@Michael-cb5nmمنذ 3 سنوات One spacecraft looks like a lawn dart, and the other.let’s just say Jeff has some insecurities. 74

@

@polotov7منذ 3 سنوات Imagine how far they would get if they just worked together but Virgin has been testing space lights for 15 or so years so they should be first to go 5
@

@BrianSuمنذ 3 سنوات good that the capsule has a Soyuz like landing rocket to cushion the impact. I guess this is required for all hard landings on land. 3

@aurora_occidentalis2248منذ 3 سنوات Go SPCE! Spaceplanes rule! I imagine VG in ~ 20 years with a 4th generation vehicle taking tourists to a zero G resort for a week or two of orbital bliss much like today's cruse ship experience. 30

@leonmorales6237منذ 3 سنوات Groovy, a real life Austin powers and dr evil, I can definitely see Branson having a party up there, and bezos being jealous of bransons mojo! Branson even has the cool blue jump suit and cool ride just like Austin powers . 12

@FearEngineمنذ 3 سنوات I really have a bad feeling about the rocket, especially given the lack of regulation. Yeah the view-ports are nice but I think if not on the main trip at some point something
is far more likely to malfunction. 9

@

@tchaffmanمنذ 3 سنوات $500,000 is obviously a lot of money to pay for a ticket, but at the same time it costs more than $100,000 to climb Mount Everest, so from that perspective id="hidden11" class="buttons"> I see how a select group of individuals could justify paying for that kind of experience. I'd imagine the cost comes down in the next 50 years. ....وسعت 12

@keithmcknight7646منذ 3 سنوات Elon COULD send a Dragon2 capsule AROUND the moon and back aboard a Falcon Heavy (in fact that WAS the plan with the Japanese business guy before Starship id="hidden14" class="buttons"> came along). I think he still should do it OR just make 3 or more orbits around the earth in a dragon. ....وسعت 13

@frufrufrufru1999منذ 3 سنوات Virgin Galactic is a plane and if something goes wrong it can glide its way back to safety.

@HaloFTW117منذ 3 سنوات Could someone help please explain something. When I was growing up (born in the mid 90’s), I remember that in the mid 2000s I was watching a tv show with Branson (something about a competition and an island), the participants were also flying very high up and jumping in either zero g or close to zero g. How’s this trip different, isn’it a similar basis? I’m just confused about the novelty here.
Still, congrats on the trip, Richard and Jeff! ....وسعت
