Many in the space industry believe that after stepping down as Amazon's chief executive, Bezos will spend more time with the company to help it take off faster. < / P > < p > < / P > < p > Bezos is likely to focus on the mission of blue origin, that is, to build a transportation network and reduce the cost of space travel, so as to realize what he calls "a vibrant entrepreneurial explosion in space". Bezos injects $1 billion a year into blue origin, saying "it's the most important thing I'm doing to get millions of people to live and work in space.". < / P > < p > as early as in the high school graduation ceremony, Bezos made a speech on going to space to save the earth. He said the earth should be protected as a national park. Today, he still adheres to the same belief, with only minor adjustments. He said the earth should be zoned residential and all heavy industry should be transferred to space. < / P > < p > Bezos is a big fan of Star Trek. He has been fascinated by science fiction since he was a child, and has always been committed to making his dreams come true, including building a huge colony in space. < / P > < p > at first, there were only a few people in blue origin, who were headquartered in Seattle's industrial warehouse to study whether there were other ways to enter space besides using chemical fuel rockets. After studying several alternatives, even the giant whip that throws objects into space, they found that Rockets are still the best choice, as long as they can be reused.
Jim bridenstine, the former director of NASA, once said:" Bezos' goal is to let human beings leave the earth, which is his fundamental goal. To do that, he knows that there must be revolutionary technologies to reduce costs and increase access frequency, and these are the things he is investing in. " < / P > < p > however, blue origin has not yet put the spacecraft into orbit or carried out manned flight. Many criticized the company for being too slow, especially with Elon Musk's < a target = "_ blank" href=" https://news.163.com/news/search?keyword=SpaceX "> SpaceX < / a >. Within six years of its establishment, SpaceX launched the rocket into orbit, and last year put two < a target = "_ blank" href=" https://news.163.com/news/search?keyword=%E5%AE%87%E8%88%AA%E5%91%98 "> astronauts < / a > to the international space station. At the same time, the company is testing starships to send people to the moon and Mars. < / P > < p > in contrast, blue origin believes in "steady progress" and is ready to accumulate. Recently, the company, which has always been quiet and mysterious, has begun to raise its profile, preparing to use the new Shepard, a suborbital vehicle, to send the first humans to the edge of space and then return. In addition, blue Genesis hopes to put its new Glenn rocket into orbit this year. < / P > < p > Blue genesis is also developing a spacecraft that can transport astronauts to and from the surface of the moon. The company announced on Tuesday that it had built a full-scale model of the lunar lander. As part of NASA's return to the moon program, the company is planning to conduct unmanned test missions for lunar landers, then help humans land on the moon and seek to establish permanent bases on and around the moon. < / P > < p > landing on the moon is Bezos's dream. In 2013, he funded an expedition to retrieve the F-1 engine that powered the Saturn V rocket that sent Apollo astronauts to the moon. Some of the engines have been on display at the Seattle flight Museum. < / P > < p > Bezos's goal now is to build the same huge rocket with reusable boosters, just as SpaceX landed the Falcon 9 rocket. He said building space infrastructure would be his life's work. < / P > < p > at an event in 2016, he said: "when I look back on my life at the age of 80, I can say that with the help of my colleagues from blue origin, I have built the space infrastructure to make the cost of entering space cheaper, so that the next generation can have a business explosion as I saw on the Internet, and I will become a very happy 80 year old."
