NEW YORK, Oct 14 — Blue Origin, the US space company founded by billionaire Jeff Bezos, succeeded Tuesday in its latest test flight of its rocket aimed at one day taking tourists to space, even as the date of the first crewed launch remains unclear. It attained an altitude of 66 miles above sea level, before descending back to the surface using parachutes and landing in a cloud of dust in the desert of West Texas.Blue Origin previously unveiled the capsule's interior: six seats with horizontal backrests, placed next to large portholes, in a futuristic cabin with swish lighting.
