Blue Origin is poised to make history on December 18 by sending a wheelchair user on its NS-37 suborbital mission. This unprecedented feat aims to expand accessibility in private spaceflight, setting a precedent for making outer space open to all.

Jeff Bezos couldn’t contain his excitement as he rushed to greet his fiancée, Lauren Sanchez, and the all-female crew of Blue Origin’s New Shepard rocket upon its return to West Texas. In his enthusiasm, the Blue Origin founder took an unexpected tumble, adding a light-hearted moment to the successful mission.
