This week, Blue Origin announced that they will be sending six people to space in their third flight. This is a huge achievement for the company and has been well-received by the public so far. One of those six lucky passengers is former NFL player, Michael Strahan. Strahan retired from football in 2007 but since then he has pursued other passions such as acting and television hosting. The rest of the passengers may not have the same star power as Michael Strahan but we can assume they are all successful professionals with something in common: a strong desire to explore space!
He enjoyed his flight and celebrated his big achievement of being one of the very few people who have been to space. Blue Origin plan on making this a regular activity with multiple flights being carried out every month. Michael Strahan loved the experience and this may have just given his fellow sports personalities motivation to write a check to Jeff Bezos and book their own ticket for the space flight. With Blue Origins’ third flight , Jeff Bezos has made it very clear that this can be a viable tourism sector which can not only make him richer but can also give a highly unique experience to the passengers as well.
