This makes them about 5 years behind SpaceX. Still, they’re ahead of anybody else in the world.

Looks like a single person rocket... So you save $$$ going without a seat. Not sure though where you will put the human waste product that is sure to ensue after takeoff, unless it is being self contained within a pair of ‘depends’.
All in all... They’re going to need some more development before any commercial purpose can be achieved.

Two Factoids
If you are following Bob Zimmerman at https://behindtheblack.com, none of this is “news.” It is great.
Musk start SpaceX around the same time as Bezos “started” Blue Origin. The SpaceX Falcon 9 is a fully reusable system, with a lot less trouble than Boeing. Some of the Falcon 9 rockets have flown 28 times. Eventually there will be a fleet of Falcon 9s that fly 40 times. Even the European Space Agency (ESA) has used SpaceX.
The StarLink system now makes enough $$$ to fund the Starship SuperHeavy test regimen. Bezos/Amazon brag about their internet satellite system, but.......
PS - Bob Zimmerman / behind the black is as unwoke as they come. Real science.

The Honda A-Type, Honda's First Product on the Market - 1947.
Honda's Super Cub - and we're off to the races and eventually into space.
I admire Honda's winning spirit and winning record.

It needs to be electric!
That makes them the third company to be able to do that? Behind SpaceX and whatever Bezos’ space company is?

And our vaunted NASA is behind on even this.
Maybe we change NASA to an agency that only contracts out everything for private companies to do, not to NASA specs, just to their own.
