More Commercial Space Flight Rumblings

Following on the heels of Space Ship One's first private space flight, Jeff Bezos, founder of Amazon.com has announced bits and pieces of his plan to develop a private commercial space flight company.

Bezos is planning to locate his venture in West Texas near the town of Van Horn. He also believes that commerical flights could begin in as little as six or seven years. He's calling the new project Blue Origin, and he's developing his own private Cape Canaveral on a property known as the Corn Ranch.

Hmmm, I wonder if he'll sell tickets through Amazon?
