On Tuesday, July 20, 2021, the founder of Amazon, @JeffBezos, is all set to fly to the edge of space along with three others, aboard his company @blueorigin's New Shepard rocket.
Surpassing the #troposphere and #stratosphere, the space flights of @blueorigin will fly to the edge of space, about 100 km above the Earth’s mean sea level—the Karman line, also called the ‘edge of space’. Image

My feelings about the whole billionaire space race thing are, shall we say, mixed. I’m watching the launch because I’m interested in spaceships but there’s a lot going on with this whole endeavor that a tweet can’t really encapsulate.
Wow this livestream is really putting the “commercial” into “commercial spaceflight”

As @richardbranson, @JeffBezos & @elonmusk race to get into space, I’m reminded of that Gil Scott Heron song:

“I can't pay no doctor bill
(but Whitey's on the moon)
Ten years from now I'll be payin' still
(while Whitey's on the moon)”

Gil Scott/Heron’s stand-up was very funny & always ‘political’

“When I went to see “Jaws”, I identified with the shark. Jaws was the home team. He was in the water. This is where sharks are known to be. You go to the beach, he goes to the supermarket.”
