![]() ![]() Ultimately Mr Bezos, Mr Musk and Mr Branson recognize a truth that Professor Stephen Hawking set out just before his death – that humans must eventually leave the Earth in order to survive. The next vehicles currently being developed are New Glenn and New Armstong these vehicles are larger than New Shepard and are part of a long term program to establish a permanent base on the Moon. While Mr Bezos can certainly defend himself it is worth pointing out a few things about his ambition for Blue Origin New Shepard is just the first fully operational lift vehicle for Blue Origin. As for Mr Bezos’ space exploration program being for “fun” this is rank idiocy. It is not burning filthy diesel! Clearly there is an environmental impact in producing the vehicle and the fuel but there is far less of an impact than producing an airliner like an Airbus A380 which uses Avgas as fuel. The only emissions it produces when being used is water vapor. The New Shepard vehicle uses a BE-3 engine powered by liquid hydrogen and liquid oxygen. What utter rubbish about “climate emissions” produced by the Blue Origin rocket. For the occasion, the straps have been customized with the Speedmaster logo in blue, as well as Blue Origin’s logo. In addition, Blue Origin NS-16 crew members strapped their Omega Speedmaster around the wrist by the means of the recently introduced Omega Velcro straps, here in silver textile. There’s more to the story than just the watches. The watches in question were customized versions of the new Speedmaster Moonwatch Master Chronometer with calibre 3861, which according to Hodinkee “ had casebacks engraved with the wearer’s name, the flight number, and the feather insignia of Blue Origin” and were donated by Omega. Also, this isn’t completely a surprise to see Bezos wearing a Speedmaster, as he’s been spotted wearing his own model on multiple occasions. ![]() And what better watch than a Speedmaster to go to space…? All 4 crew members were indeed spotted wearing the famous space-related chronograph, also known as the Moonwatch – which coincidentally yesterday celebrated the 52nd anniversary of the Moon Landing. Funny enough, the first is the youngest person to travel into space, and the latter became the oldest person to go to space.īut now, apart from the great achievement itself, there’s something more to discover, something that has to do with the editorial line of your magazine… watches, of course. Onboard was American billionaire and Blue Origin founder Jeff Bezos, his brother Mark Bezos, Dutch student Oliver Daemen and former NASA pilot and Mercury 13 candidate Wally Funk. Yesterday, July 20th, 2021, mission Blue Origin NS-16, the sixteenth flight of the company’s New Shepard integrated launch vehicle and spacecraft, achieved its goal of bringing 4 crew members into space, becoming the privately-owned company’s first crewed flight, thus opening the door to what’s now known as space tourism. But now, with Branson’s and Bezos’ ventures, flying into space, even for a short period of time, becomes something of a reality… even though not yet something of a wide audience reality. ![]() We also now stock ZULU NATO watch straps, and Apple Watch NATO straps.Une publication partagée par Nick exploration was a concept previously reserved for governmental agencies only.
