Blastoff! Blue Origin launches 'Space Gal' Emily Calandrelli and 5 others, nails landings

[@AbsoluteLM]

Why so angry, bros? Yay to Emily Calandrelli! She'll continue to inspire kids to dream big and love science.

[@tayfunyugruk]

Each commercial flight will fund more capable future New Sheppard spaceships, it will be exciting to see the progress of NS

[@GerieBraun]

Great job and🎉 congratulations🎉 to those who flew. I still remember William Shatner's flight...

[@mmedved5567]

For all of you space 'geniuses', there's a ton of rocket companies around the world that are not trying to be SpaceX. They have their area of expertise and some are launching regular commercial payloads. Some will grow and some will fail. That's how it works.

[@nieznanyx]

k - who asked? lol

[@MikeKisil]

Finally the wait over congratulations to all.

[@itheuserfirst3186]

The I.Q. level in the comments is basement level.

[@nieznanyx]

your humor level is also in the sub basement lol

[@jimwagnerclips]

Well done! Congratulations.

[@lightlegion_]

Wow! You’re doing an amazing job.

[@JMWexperience]

Very cool to say the least! What a fun ride.

[@hectorfuji]

Imagine that rocket landing in the front yard and somebody coming out to deliver packages…

[@johng8967]

Why so much hate on here.

[@MrSurf25]

Elon funded troll bots.

[@summere1609]

Jealousy

[@nieznanyx]

@@summere1609 jealousy of what? not having a short stubby phallic shaped rocket ? i dont think anyone is jealous of that lol

[@RabidTribble]

I do enjoy watching the booster hover and land. How much fuel is left as it touches down? How long could it hover if it had to?

[@Beefinator5000]

Colonel, you better take a look at this radar. It looks like a giant...

Woody!

Wang! pay attention

Johnson!

little boy * lol

[@xxskabxx]

You guys are missing the point

[@nieznanyx]

its not large enough to make the point lol

[@zoeylola]

While SpaceX is revolutionizing the aerospace industry, building superior rockets and spacecraft as well as working on future space exploration, Blue Origin is sending the ultra rich on a 15 min joyride into the Stratosphere strapped into a rocketship resembling a giant dildo.

[@suprdav4640]

I’m sorry, not astronauts. Basically an extreme carnival ride.

[@jean-pierrescherer8250]

Well… NASA changed the definition of astronaut so that Mr. Bezos could use the term for his customers… not sure what the payoff amount was going to NASA but that is what happened….

[@n8style]

congrats!

[@MisterBlaine102]

Oh look! A rocket that doesn't look at all like anything else, in particular . . .

[@arnoldsmith5754]

Blue Origin is doing fine with this rocket but we are waiting for bigger rockets from them

[@nieznanyx]

they should paint them black if they go bigger ;)

[@Erik-rp1hi]

Looks like fun

[@davidfann5397]

This so reminds me of titan

[@lasher367th]

Circus ride

[@MUSIC4EVA55]

Worst launch video ever.

[@1teamski]

This is the bottle rocket of space tech.

[@drteknical6571]

Hahahahahahahaha!

[@groundzero6662]

Go wiener go!!

[@nieznanyx]

imagine the narrator fighting every nerve in their body to not make a phallic comment or joke as it arises -- they really need to change the shape of that thing

[@mmedved5567]

Grow up kid.

[@ky1ebetts]

Hahaha, right?THANK YOU!

[@ky1ebetts]

Buzz kill, everyone grows up, don't they? I mean I'm pretty sure it is impossible to grow down.

[@nieznanyx]

@@mmedved5567 we have grown up - that thing hasnt -- if youre gonna make it phallic -- paint it black and make it large lol .. play into it .. or be a party pooper like yourself. what a waste

[@nieznanyx]

@@ky1ebetts grow down when it's cold outside? haha

[@robert_mitchell]

Well, that sure was unbelievably unexciting. Horrible video quality. Yawn.

[@vertigoz]

That's a...

[@lasersbee]

Wow... another Up and Down Amusement Park Ride for the Rich flight.... I'm so impressed 😵‍💫

[@jasonpreston636]

I would love to take that trip on the stiff flying..umm rocket ship lmao...but 10min is all you get? And to call them astronauts for mear seconds in sub space is insulting to any real astronauts imo

[@dbaider9467]

A 10 minute pointless ride. The waste of precious earth resources that goes into this is shameful.

[@Paiadakine]

Why bother?

[@aproudamerican2692]

The best part of this was being in the live chat during this cringey event. They tried to make it sound like this is a huge deal and these "astronauts" trained hard for this $500,000 7 min ride into space 😂🤣. They all came back acting like they just came back from the ISS. They could have gotten a better, longer and cheaper ride if they flew on the vomit comet. It was really fun though. Honestly, I haven't laughed this much in a long time. Thanks Bezos. After watching this I now know now why they say you'll always be in Elons dust. Notice that they have to give away free trips. Very few rich people are willing to pay for this. These are the same type of genesis that payed hundreds of thousands of dollars to go down on the Titan submersible to the Titanic an never came back.

[@sslcm56]

Well, they may actually get to the altitude that they are actually in space but it's more of an expensive toy for rich people than anything else. There isn't any serious work being done or accomplishments being made.

[@pongo963]

Let me tell you what's sickening about this. At the beginning, did you hear the Introduction. All these people are talking about , Oh, everyone should do this, yeah right, this guy runs a risk managementcompanyand so on. It might sound like I am mad or upset but the announcer (female) with the smile onbher face sounds so fake. Only Millionaire's get yo fly. SO SAD.

[@403.FORBIDDEN]

Bruh that's how it works. Nearly everything affordable today started by being expensive and therefore limited to who can partake. Cars, airplanes, helicopters, all various types of products that are now standard. The fact that going to space became affordable enough for CIVILIANS is proof of this and it will only become cheaper in the future.

[@lasher367th]

What a waste.

[@mibo747]

Impossible to cqtch up with spacex

[@davehughes6653]

Totally unnecessary air pollution. Just a joyride for the mega rich.

[@OldLugnutz]

Right, ya know, ya know, right, ya know….geez, learn diction and public speaking, please….

[@x7wolverines7x]

All of origins cameras stink they gotta learn from space x

[@Anythingforfreedom]

I'm impressed they're able to keep up with SpaceX (Almost).

[@lasersbee]

Not even close...

[@nieznanyx]

they havent kept up at all lol -- space x does like 3 launches a week .. sometimes 3 in 36 hrs .. phallic bezos does 3 in a quarter if not longer lol

[@Anythingforfreedom]

@@nieznanyx I'm comparing Blue origin to China's attempts to imitate spacex technology.... which is an important point of comparison. We want ALL of our space companies to be superior to anything China has.

[@SpideyVids]

Still sub-orbital - meh!

This is a scam
