Jeff Bezos: Try to Slide Space Initiative Blue Origin to  Hyperdrive

  SEATTLE (Reuters) -Industry sources reported that Jeff Bezos, who escaped his daily obligations on Amazon (NASDAQ: AMZN), could face Elon Musk by increasing the pressure on space initiative on Blue Origin. Sources close to the subject pointed out that space competition may begin between the world's two richest people. Jeff Bezos reported last week that he resigned from his role at Amazon to focus on his personal projects. It was learned that Bezos told Amazon employees that he would also spare time for Blue Origin. Blue Origin representative declined to comment on the matter. On the other hand, Blue Origin lags far behind SpaceX in orbital transport; He accelerated his work in order to close the difference with SpaceX and Dynetics. Blue Origin has begun work on developing a new lunar landing craft for NASA's multi-billion dollar move that has the potential to bring people to the moon in a few years. Two people attending the briefing said SpaceX and Dynetics are likely to complete the moon landing by the end of April, causing serious pressure. Although there are rumors that Blue Origin had a hard time making an all-terrain vehicle small and light enough to fit in the rocket, it was stated that this problem was eliminated by changing the designs. An industry veteran explained:  Bezos had to play an operational role in solving a number of problems such as bureaucratic processes and late deadlines. While all these developments were taking place, there were moments when Jeff Bezos' last Instagram post watccing the test of the rocket called "a perfect night".

  Blue Origin, founded in 2000 in Washnigton; It has reached 3500 employees, with large production and launch facilities in Texas, Florida and Alabama. However, the company has not yet achieved any commercial success, despite its ambitious portfolio. By comparison, Musk's SpaceX launched the Falcon 9 more than 100 times, despite being formed two years after Blue Origin. Launched the Falcon Heavy 3 times, the world's most operational rocket, and carried the astronauts to the International Space Station (ISS) In the last statement made by SpaceX on Thursday, it was stated that Musk will provide a very important fund to develop the Starship rocket for missions to the Moon and ultimately to Mars. Meanwhile, sources say they hope Blue Origin will generate more revenue from the New Glenn rocket by the end of the year than Amazon's constellation project 'Project Kuiper'. Amazon has stated that it aims to keep half of the constellation in orbit by 2026. On other days, when Bezos could devote one day of the week to Blue Origin, it was learned that he attended meetings via video conferencing due to the coronavirus pandemic.
