Jeff Bezos' space company expects to start flying passengers in 2018
KENT, Wash. (Reuters) - Jeff Bezos' space company Blue Origin expects to begin crewed test flights of its reusable suborbital New Shepard vehicle next year and begin flying paying passengers in 2018, Bezos told reporters on Tuesday.
Bezos’ remarks, made during the first ever media tour of the Blue Origin manufacturing facility, marked the first time the billionaire founder ofAmazon.com had put a target date on the start of the commercial space flights Blue Origin is developing.

They just cannot get it through their heads that space flight is not a priviledge afforded to human beings.We have been warned time and time again to cease and desist this ridiculous endeavor.In the same manner that nuclear missiles all over the earth have been disabled so will any and all efforts to leave our planet and contaminate the universe with our antiquated means of propulsion.Who knows how many guinea pigs and test subjects will die proving what a handful of us already know? Earth was created to be our home.
