Blue Origin is cool but it&#x27;s certainly not astonishing to me that a billionaire is able to send a rocket on a suborbital trajectory and recover it. It&#x27;s certainly more than I&#x27;ve ever done by a long shot, but it&#x27;s not a very interesting achievement unless you&#x27;re interested in five-minute space tourism. I don&#x27;t think BO&#x27;s achievement here has many implications for space travel.
