When is he going to space?
The founder of Amazon is all set to go to space on July 20 with the rocket ship made by his start up Blue Origin. His spaceflight comes only 15 days after he stepped down from his role as the CEO of Amazon.
He will accompanied by his brother Mark Bezos, 82-year-old flight instructor Wally Funk and the winner of the month-long auction.
Blue Origins was founded by Bezos in 2000. More than a dozen test flights are said to have been conducted with no one on board in its facilities in rural Texas.
