Jeff Bezos' Blue Origin spacecraft successfully launches, lands 4th crewed flight

Blue Origin, the space tourism venture launched by entrepreneur Jeff Bezos, completed its fourth flight with a crew on Thursday, landing successfully in rural west Texas after taking a half-dozen passengers for a 10-minute suborbital joyride.

The New Shepard spacecraft blasted off at 8:59 a.m. CDT, and the crew capsule separated from the six-storey-tall rocket a short time later as it soared to an altitude of 106 kilometres.
