The company Blue Origin announced that this is 18-year-old Oliver Damen. He became the first buyer of a space tourist space for suborbital flights, but he was not the first to win. It turned out that the hitherto unknown winner of the $ 28 million bidding had given up because “he could not fit the event into his schedule.” That’s how the son of the head of an investment company got lucky. It is not known how much Jos Damen, founder and CEO of Somerset Capital Partners, paid to buy the space next to two brothers Jeff and Mark Bezos and 82-year-old Wally Funk, who years ago was preparing for NASA’s astronaut program, but it has never flown in space. The high school graduate is currently taking a pilot course and will be studying physics and innovation management at the University of Utrecht in the Netherlands from September. The flight is planned just ten days after that of billionaire Richard Branson, who is not recognized as space by Blue Origin, as it is below the line 100 km above the surface, above which almost all agencies in the world believe that space begins. In addition, a missile was used in the skies over New Mexico instead of a capsule missile with an emergency evacuation system. Bezos’ New Shepard is a capsule-rocket over 18 meters high, but it cannot be operated by the people on board. The start should be given in West Texas. The capsule will rise over 100 km in height and in about 4 minutes travelers will experience weightlessness. The capsule will then be lowered with 3 parachutes until Branson’s plane lands at the same airport from which it was taken out on a carrier plane. – Related posts:Musk owns dogecoin (DOGE) and this other altcoin, Binance destroys $400 million BNB and more news! ...Former Gazelle Director Jaap Merkus Joins Stella as Chairman of Supervisory BoardSurprise transaction.
