Commercial Space Station to be Established in Earth Orbit

Space travel began a while ago through commercially competing companies. However, as you know, when “companies” get involved, many things that are claimed to be for the benefit of humanity and humanity can actually be the cover of many commercial interests.

Blue Origin, the space company of billionaire Jeff Bezos, received support from NASA for the commercial space station it plans to establish in Earth orbit. The reason for this is that NASA plans to retire the National Space Station. With this support, Blue Origin will have set up a space station with offices for rent, targeting government agencies, researchers, tourism companies and film production companies.

“Making Earth orbit more accessible to customers…”

NASA said in an announcement Thursday that it has chosen Blue Origin’s program to raise funds through the Space Law Agreement. NASA was giving significant support not only to Blue Origin but also to SpaceX, but it is curious how this support given to Jeff Bezos’ company will find a response in Elon Musk’s company.

“We are delighted that NASA is supporting the development of Orbital Reef, a revolutionary approach to making Earth orbit more accessible to a variety of customers and industries,” said Brent Sherwood, senior vice president of Advanced Development Programs at Blue Origin. In addition to meeting the needs of ISS partners, the station will offer reduced operating costs for burgeoning low G industries. It will also serve as a multi-use space business park in orbit.”
