>>Hopefully it will go well as some idiot is sending his 18 year old son up in it.

Pretty sure Bezo’s allowed an 18 year old kid on the rocket in case it explodes - that way people would feel a bit guilty cheering.

World can do with a few less bezo’s .... but who wants to cheer for an 18 year old kid getting killed.

Looks like a giant thing that can’t be mentioned in this forum.

The private sector is moving things along...

Good luck to them!

You know, I really don’t like Bezos. Even so, I really hope everything goes well.

Well, it’s one of the reasons they designed it the way they did. For paying customers to go up there, they want them to be able to see out as much as possible. I can’t say I blame them for that. It does have an odd effect though in that I can look in and see the people inside the capsule as an observer.
