That Blue Origin will start selling tickets for space tour next year, we learned . And if you're not a billionaire, not an astronaut and not one of the crazies that will go to the Big Fucking Rocket Elon musk on Mars, start to save money: this may be your only chance to visit space. Of course, there's the Vomit Comet, but it does not. Jeff Bezos will charge you only $ 200,000. However, there is Virgin Galactic .
However, perhaps the price will rise to $ 300,000 due to the influx of visitors. You can take the credit.
Aerospace company Blue Origin, one of the favorite projects of Bezos, did not make any statements regarding the commercial side of flying, but two experts close to the issues, told Reuters that ticket prices will start from $ 200 000 per person.
This one-time fee will allow you to go with five other people to a height 100 kilometers above our planet, well above the cruising height of commercial airplanes. Once there, you will experience several minutes of weightlessness and see the curve of the planet, after which the capsule will fall to the Ground.
If you just rich person who believes that the Earth is flat, you definitely need to fly. In the capsule there are six observation Windows, which is three times more than the Boeing 747, so you will see everything.
Travel with Blue Origin will be Autonomous but you guess not. However, the company has not even conducted flight tests with real people. Only completed eight test flights without them.
What if the rocket explodes mid-flight? Well, the company will test the ejection system capsules "few weeks".
