[@gordanjurisic3173]

That's why he will be so much richer than Bezos. Cause he is driven with value, not money.

[@shyamdevadas6099]

To be honest, it's probably more realistic to become a trillionaire than it is to colonize Mars.

[@shyamdevadas6099]

@Julio Von Chillio This is a fine aspiration, Julio. I share it. HOWEVER, Musk isn't motivated through altruistic humanitarianism. He's an entrepreneur and he wants to be rich. To fund any sort of Mars exploration/colonization scheme, he has to sell a lot of Teslas along with all of the other things he is hawking. None of them, including Tesla is a runaway success, yet. But, even if they are it is unfeasible to philanthropically support space colonization. The figures just don't add up. It is more likely that Musk is using this pie in the sky narrative to persuade his worshippers to buy more Teslas. Unlike Musk, Bezos has many well-established businesses and the personal wealth needed to sustain a developmental space exploration program. Incremental steps and tortoise-like focus is more likely to achieve results, when it comes to space exploration. Not hero-worship, hype, and Musk's cynical public relations efforts.

[@Nuvendil]

To be fair, what Bezos envisions is far beyond what could wver be achieved in his lifetime. Stations as he describes are economically impossible without first massive industrialization of space. For that we need rockets that can be produced rapidly, affordably, and be reused a LOT. We will need to mine the moon and eventually the asteroid belt for materials and water. We'll need to build numerous stations and craft in space that will allow for significant workforces to live and work long term in those environments. Colonizing Mars is actually far more straightforward than colonizing space. Both are theoretically possible, but the advancements needed for space colonization are as massive as the potential benefits of such. I'm sure Bezos would love to visit a small space colony or Mars colony before he dies, but his long term vision is beyond what he can live to see and he knows that.

[@JohnDoe-vf3qo]

@@Nuvendil i think his mission is more important than going to mars because elon wants to die there. his mission to extract materials from the materials we have in our solar system is much more of a type 1 civilization and help us to continue to live and help with our energy problem we have.

Then of course like you said, SpaceX and ULA won National Security contracts for the Air Force, which lead to the termination of the contract (Air Force was satisfied with 2 companies providing service). Although despite the loss of the National Security sector, wouldn't you say it's not a bad thing as Blue Origin can still fund the development of New Glenn and New Shepard for the soon to come commercial space era we are entering?

I have looked at a lot of videos about colonizing the moon & Mars. And I haven't found any with my same ideas. I think we should set up a moon colony on earth. We should have inflatable domes, which we cover with 3D printers with simulated moon mortar. The domes should be connected to each other by inflatable tunnels covered with simulated moon mortar. There should be living quarters, hydroponic green houses, gardens with garden soil for recreational gardening, a 5 acre pasture with one inch of garden soil and one inch of grass turf, a park with artificial turf and with small sections of real grass turf, and maybe even a very small zoo. All the domes will have plastic floors so no water is lost. Condensation forming on the ceilings will be drained into the water supply. All the domes will be blown up with compressed air from earth and will have a refresh system, which will refresh the air and maintain the air pressure. Humidity, Temperature will be maintained by humidifiers, heaters, fans and coolers. Light will be provided by multi-color LEDs, mostly white. Power will be supplied at first by solar power, and later by nuclear or fusion power. All water will be re-cycled, almost zero loss of water. There will be a bull, a cow, two sheep, and two goats, two chickens, two turkeys, two fish, and two rabbits. There will also be pets, two dogs, two cats, two bunnies, etc. (and maybe a small zoo) All of this will be set up by astronauts and robots before the colonist arrive. The first colonist will be 5 fathers and 5 mothers, and 90 babies. The parents will be good parents, gardeners, farmers, zoo keepers, teachers, etc.. During the first two years an exact duplicate facility will be built on the moon. When the babies are two years old, they will move to the moon and live on the moon. Or if it is proven that they will be too young to travel to the moon than the facility on earth will be added to, to accommodate 10 more parents and 90 more babies. The two year olds would move into the new addition. Every two years the facility will be either added to, or 100 people will move to the moon. This plan will allow the kids to grow up in the isolation of the colony, and will make it easier for them to live in the isolation of the colony on the moon. And will allow them to grow up on the moon and be better able to adjust to the lower gravity on the moon, although some artificial gravity maybe eventually provided. This artificial gravity will especially be good for the parents. The kids will have everything in the facility to keep them occupied and entertained. Also they could have some books, movies, games, etc., especially adapted for them, being careful not to give them anything that would make them feel isolated. After 20 years there could be 2000 people living on the moon, most of whom grew up on the moon. This program could be speeded up so in 20 years there could be 4000, 6000, or 8000 people living on the moon. This program could be simultaneously done to colonize Mars so we could have 2000 people on the Moon and Mars at the same time. For the moon we could send supplies every month, but for Mars we could only send supplies every 26 months. So I suggest we send 10, 20, or 30 rockets to Mars every 26 months all at the same time. We could have several refueling stations along the way to mars and orbiting mars so rockets could refuel along the way to mars and right before landing on mars so the empty rocket would have enough fuel to take off again, refuel in space and return to Earth. Eventually the colonist could grow trees, bamboo, and other plants for raw materials that could be used for making things. Eventually the moon and Mars could export minerals or small expensive items that were assembled on the moon or Mars, like jewelry, iphones, iwatches, etc. Or grown on the moon like caviar, marijuana, etc. What do you think ? :-)

Only when time is against you and the money is short do you innovate a masterpiece.

[@lipingfeng]

We need to encourage healthy competition among companies that are pursuing similar goals. In 10 - 30 years, we might see the real difference between SpaceX & Blue Origin. I appreciate them both. I also appreciate the vision of Blue Origin: preserving the Earth - the best planet in the solar system for humans - by expanding into space. Thank you for sharing.

[@lydialutz]

Fabulous comparison. I learned a lot.

It be awesome to live in a halo ring. Just waiting for the armor to get released!

Blue Origin did get _a_ win out of that contest, the Vulcan is powered by Blue Origin's engine, the BE4

Cool. I think sir Jeff is moving too slowly, instead of a tortoise vs. the hare, it's a snail:D

If there’s one thing games have taught me. The longer you wait for something to unlock the better it is

[@adamrawlins6333]

Having said that, space x has out grown the race. They’re far beyond blue origin with information as a failed mission teaches you just as much as a successful one

[@cosmiconni6321]

Spacex: delivery service for america. Blue origin: delivery service for ET Nasa: we havent found ET

[@danielh3367]

Because one man has space in his mind and the other is just a showman.

[@CrimsonRegalia]

Sooooo... That shape was the result of searching for perfection?... 😂

[@Pikminiman]

It's clear to me that SpaceX will only gain further dominance as time goes on, but I am over the moon that multiple private space companies have viable long-term paths forward.

[@travelsofmunch1476]

Everyone is sleeping on the BE-4, it is a fabulous engine

It’s going to be funny watching other rockets launch after Starship’s is ready

Awww Look at the wittle whocket. Is that a feather on the side or hello kitty? I cant tell it's so small.

[@guslevy3506]

Being thoughtful and careful is prudent. The obvious problem with Blue Origin is that being thoughtful and careful merely for the sake of being thoughtful and careful is silly. These guys have spent 20yrs in the space rocket business...having breached the Karman Line is sorta kinda important in the space business. The physical and mathematical properties become different on the other side of that Line - and are needed to be, you know, thoughtful and careful about things going forward.

[@mrjrvela]

I'VE test drove S 3 X Y & i liked the S & Y the most. But I've already ordered the tri motor fsd cyber truck..I can't wait.. I may buy the Y or the S in the meantime..i got a lot of solar & backup battery system too ..i also love Space X!! Jeff is just a rich want a be in space.

3 yrs later, still waiting on blue origin

And that's the difference between a delivery boy and an actual rocket scientist.

Brilliant as always. By 2050 am most excited for neuralink and VR though.

AR is even more exciting. Facebook bought Plessey not so long ago, very impressive technology.

[@keithallver2450]

Considering the Vulcan-Centaur will be using the BE-4 engine Blur Origin still scored a minor victory.

Come on, Blue Origin! Make orbital flight!

Nice ad transition

[@tatianagershberg1982]

jeff probably stepped down as amazon ceo to spend more time on blue origin

[@rasaecnai]

step by step ferociously... in the wrong direction. Rocket Labs founded 4 years later than Blue Origin with a lot less funding achieved orbit in 2018 and has some 20 successful missions now. In Tim Dodds tour of the Starbase, we can see the contrast. Even construction workers are being told that "what if there is an asteroid hurtling towards earth right now". Top to bottom of the company knows exactly what they are working on.
