In the United States, Amazon founder Jeff Bezos’ company Blue Origin conducted the second test of a New Shepard rocket for suborbital space tourism. It is reported by ABC7.

The capsule separated from the rocket a few moments after launch and returned to Earth on three parachutes. The launch vehicle then successfully landed at the landing site.
