Blue Origin founder CEO Jeff Bezos, who is also Amazon.com CEO, inside a mock-up of the New Shepard crew capsule during the Space Symposium in Colorado, US, earlier this month. Blue Origin is still hoping to start flying people on suborbital space-tourism flights by the end of 2018. The crew capsule features six seats, fixed in a horizontal position, and large windows. Tourists will also reportedly be able to float around the cabin during the approximately four minutes of weightlessness on a typical flight.
