Bezos is all set for a trip to the edge of space aboard New Shepard on July 20. The flight will mark the company's first mission flying humans.
According to NASA Administrator Jim Bridenstine, the main difference between the Apollo programme and the "Artemis" is that the former culminated with brief stays on the Moon while the latter will entail a permanent human presence there.
