Amazon founder Jeff Bezos is set to fly into space on July 20 aboard his Blue Origin spacecraft. He is accompanied by Fence Punk, 82, and Oliver Damon, 18, the first female flight instructor in the United States.

The world's richest man is Amazon founder Jeff Bezos. The CEO of Amazon, who has stepped down, is currently focusing on his space company 'Blue Origin' projects. Space tourism has now become a growing industry. Companies are increasingly investing in it. A few days ago, British businessman Richard Branson successfully returned to space with his Virgin Galactic spacecraft.

In this case, it is time for Jep Bezos to leave for space. The New Shepherd spacecraft will depart from the launch pad in West Texas on July 20 at 6.30pm Indian time. He is accompanied by his brother Mark Bezos, 82 - year - old grandmother Wally Punk, and 18 - year - old Oliver Damon. Fence Punk was the winner of NASA's tough astronaut training in the 1960s. But his dream came true because of US military rules that women should not fly. Jeff Bezos is currently working on it. Thus he leaps for joy.

And Oliver Damon in the group was the first person to make the payment. The winner of the auction for the trip paid Rs 200 crore and could not go on the specified date, so the next place went to Damon, who was lucky. He was the first young man to go into space. The new Shepherd spacecraft will travel 6 km beyond Fort Carmen, the Earth's atmospheric boundary at an altitude of 100 km. From there he will return to Earth after enjoying the Earth Ball and the dark black space for a few minutes.
