What is Blue Origin and Why Should We Care?
Blue Origin is a company that was founded by Amazon founder Jeff Bezos in 2000. Its purpose is to develop reusable spacecraft and rockets. The company has been developing its own rocket engines and has been working on a new rocket called New Glenn since 2013.
“You have to be willing to be misunderstood if you are going to innovate”
Jeff Bezos
Why should we care about Blue Origin? The reason for this is that the company plans to launch rockets from Launch Complex 39A at NASA’s Kennedy Space Center in Florida. This means that Blue Origin could start launching its rockets as early as 2020, and the United States will be producing its own spaceflight capability for the first time since 2011 when NASA grounded the entire space shuttle fleet following the Columbia disaster.

What Exactly is “Orbital Reef?”
Blue Origin and Sierra Space announced plans for Orbital Reef, a commercially developed, owned, and operated space station to be built in low Earth orbit. The station will open the next chapter of human space exploration and development by facilitating the growth of a vibrant ecosystem and business model for the future. Orbital Reef is backed by space industry leaders and teammates including Boeing, Redwire Space, Genesis Engineering Solutions, and Arizona State University.
Designed to open multiple new markets in space, Orbital Reef will provide anyone with the opportunity to establish their own address in orbit. This unique destination will offer research, industrial, international, and commercial customers the cost-competitive end-to-end services they need including space transportation and logistics, space habitation, equipment accommodation, and operations including onboard crew. The station will start operating in the second half of this decade.
The Future of Space Travel? Blue Origin Unveils Orbital Reef
The future of space travel? Blue Origin has unveiled a new orbital reef that can grow beyond the earth’s atmosphere. The new technology is called the orbital reef, which is a cube with a series of fans inside it.

This will allow astronauts to grow their own food and air on the space station. All these components will be sent into orbit before being deployed to growing stations in space.
Space tourism is about to take off with Blue Origin’s new orbital reef resort
With the recent development in space tourism, people are no longer limited to visiting places on Earth. Now, there are new opportunities for people to visit space without having to be an astronaut. Blue Origin is a company that has been working on space tourism for a long time and this week they announced their plans for an orbital reef resort.
The future of space travel is closer than we thought, and the future is looking bright.
For a long time, we have been dreaming of the day we will be able to explore space and beyond. These dreams and aspirations took a big leap forward with the advent of private space exploration companies such as SpaceX and Blue Origin. These companies are developing future-oriented technologies and plans that will revolutionize space exploration.
