Blue Origin, the rocket company founded by Jeff Bezos, will launch another test of its space tourism rocket on Thursday morning
The rocket, which won't have a crew on board, will take off from a test site in rural Texas on Thursday around 9:30 am ET. It will be the 11th uncrewed test of Blue Origin's New Shepard rocket, and it could be one of the last before the company starts selling tickets and sending its first customers to space. Blue Origin said earlier this year that it wants New Shepard to be open for business in 2019.
— Blue Origin May 1, 2019 Blue Origin wants to eventually send passengers straight up to more than 62 miles above Earth, which is the line frequently used to define the beginning of outer space. The people will experience a few minutes of weightlessness before the capsule begins its descent. But the company, which has kept much of its development progress under wraps, has not started selling tickets, nor has it announced a price point.
