Amazon founder Jeff Bezos confirmed that his space company, Blue Origin, will launch its next generation rocket, New Glenn, for the 1st time in 2021 by TheAlexKnapp
Amazon founder Jeff Bezos confirmed that his space company, Blue Origin, will launch its next-generation rocket, New Glenn, for the first time in 2021, and also hinted that his company might be capable of helping NASA put humans on the Moon within the Trump administration's stated five-year time frame.
Leading up to this dramatic announcement on Thursday at the Washington Convention Center, Bezos couched his vision for his space company in the context of the problems of the world as he sees them. Within the next couple of hundred years, Earth will run out of resources necessary for people to live comfortably, Bezos predicted. Which is why, he says, humanity needs to move into space., which will begin operations in 2021.
Jeff Bezos speaks in front of a model of Blue Origin's Blue Moon lunar lander, Thursday, May 9, 2019, in Washington. The lander will be powered with hydrogen fuel cells rather than solar cells because, according to Bezos, it will need to be able to survive the two-week-long night on the Moon. It will also be equipped with a launcher that could put small satellites into the Moon’s orbit as it descends.
“We already have a bunch of customers for Blue Moon, some of whom are in the audience,” he said. “They’re going to be deploying science missions to the Moon as well.”
