Jeff Bezos’ Blue Origin Breaks Its Own Test Flight Record
World's richest person Jeff Bezos-founded aerospace startup Blue Origin successfully launched its space capsule, New Shepard, breaking its own record of highest-ever test flight at nearly 120 km.

At its Texas launch facility, Blue Origin performed its most critical test till date. It performed a live separation test of its crew capsule from the rocket booster and everything performed as expected. The crew capsule fired its escape motor at the right time, sending the capsule higher than it ever has ever been sent before. This successful test is a massive milestone for Jeff Bezos’ rocket company Blue Origin, which previously stated that if the test went well, it could put the rocket company in a position to become operational by the end of the year.
