Bezos, the world's richest man, made history by traveling to space

WASHINGTON: The world's richest man, Jeff Bezos, has returned to space. They have crossed the Carmen Line in a Blue Origin Shepherd spacecraft and returned to Earth. Bezos was accompanied by three passengers, the oldest being 8-year-old Valley Frank and the youngest being 16-year-old Oliver Damon from Holland. He was accompanied by his younger brother Mark Bezos. Although the achievement of becoming the first astronaut is not written in his name, he has created a successful saga through Blue Origin. With this space flight knocking on the door of space, 6-year-old Valley Frank became the world's oldest person and 16-year-old Oliver Damon became the youngest astronaut.

The previous record was held by 8-year-old Soviet cosmonaut Gherman Titov and the oldest record was held by 6-year-old John Glenn. Both records were broken today.

Bezos also became the second businessman to travel to space. Earlier, British businessman Richard Branson flew back to the Virgin Galactic. However he did not cross the Carmen line. The gravity of the earth disappears as this line is crossed.

Branson went into space in a piloted rocket plane, in front of which the capsule of the Bezos was fully automated. There was no onboard staff to manage it. The whole process was automated as the rocket went up and then the capsule came out of it and a total of four people returned from space with Bezos. There was no one to manage it.

The Blue Origin traveled 6 miles (105 kilometers) above the Earth. He thus traveled ten miles above the Brains on July 11.

After sitting in the Bezos New Shepherd rocket, the rocket advanced into space at three times the speed of sound. It continued to move through space until most of its fuel was exhausted. The capsule then detached from the rocket and returned to Earth after spending some time without gravity. The parachute then opened and the capsule successfully landed. The entire flight lasted ten minutes and 15 seconds. When Bezos and the four with him returned, he felt six times the force of gravity.

Six years ago today, on this date, Neil Armstrong became the first traveler to set foot on the moon. NASA's Apollo 11 spacecraft, which took off from the John F. Kennedy Space Center in the US state of Florida on July 17, successfully completed a four-day journey and landed mankind on Earth's natural satellite Moon on July 30. The spacecraft remained on the lunar surface for 21 hours and 21 minutes.
