Jeff Bezos: Oh look what Elon Musk is doing… copy & paste.
Isn't it Amazon that doesn't allow their drivers to take a break and they hav to urinate in a bottle and throw it out the window? Costing the local councils ALOT of money employing ppl to pick up after them! And dangerous on tje sides of highways, tut.
I am happy Elon has competition. A monopoly on satellites is not good at all.
Fix the title sky news. That’s not a space station
It's bollocks.
>Reaches orbit
"That's all, folks"
Jeff, Please be successful and lets get rid of this radical Musk
Can we as the people get rid of musk?????????/ How do we do it collectively??????????? Come on Jeff
The launch will be anytime from 2.06 pm and 22.00 hours , wait in for it or it will go back to depot
Space X and now Blue Origin are seeing to it that Kesseler Syndrome becomes a reality and in the future no spacecraft will be able to leave Earth without colliding with a satellite or space debris. This scenario will worsen if satellites themselves start to collide. Space X currently has about 4800 satellites in orbit with permission to launch a total of 12,000. Ultimately they want to launch another 30,000. Blue Origin is planning at least 3200 satellites. There are thousands of other satellites and pieces of debris, spent rockets etc in orbit, larger ones being tracked, many not. Maybe this is all farfetched but in the quest for profits now the future is often a minor consideration.
Well come back
Special delivery on its way, Well done Amazon.
Beff Jegous is a joke just a money man . Some one bankrupt this creep so we don't put up with anymore incompetence
Its embarrassing that Jeff has to use a rocket that is not his as Blue Origin has been an epic failure. They have got nothing into orbit, yet been in business more years than SpaceX.
LOL! Amazon is the Rivian of the commercial space business.
More space junk.
"A satellite (singular, not plural)" – And it's not a competition as long as Amazon refuses to use Falcon 9s. Falcon's are going up what, I think they just reached 10 launches in a month? Not sure the rest of the EU/US launch companies combined could even do 1 every 2 months, nevermind multiple in a month.
