Jeff Bezos‘s Blue Origin spaceflight company will officially begin selling tickets for its maiden private space voyage.
In a video posted to social media on Thursday, the company teased that seats will soon be available for purchase on its New Shepard suborbital launch vehicle.
The Blue origin website now features a ticker counting down the days, hours and minutes before more details are revealed on the upcoming venture. People can also sign up on the site to learn more about the tickets when they become available.
