Elon Musk mocks Jeff Bezos again .. "Your flight only touched the edge of space"
Billionaire Tesla President Elon Musk mocked the billionaire and Amazon owner Jeff Bezos's trip to space, as Musk said in a tweet to him via Twitter that Bezos' flight will only touch space, saying, "The flight will be semi-orbital, which means It will only touch the edge of space before returning to Earth, rather than going into orbit.”
It seems that this mockery, which spread on a global scale and was shared by the pioneers of social networking sites, did not bother Bezos, but rather met it with the comment "Haha."
Bezos traveled aboard the New Shepard spacecraft and flew just above the Karman Line, an imaginary line 62 miles above sea level that some use to mark the boundary between Earth's atmosphere and space.
The flight took about 11 minutes and traveled with Bezos' brother Mark, 82-year-old pilot Wally Funk, and 18-year-old physics student Oliver Dammann.
It is reported that Elon Musk and Jeff Bezos have a long-running rivalry, as both billionaires own space exploration companies.
Musk's company, SpaceX, has a stated goal of getting humans to Mars one day, and Musk has openly said he wants to help "colonize" the Red Planet.
