Blue Origin’s debut space flight took off last year on July 20 with founder Jeff Bezos, his brother Mark Bezos, commercial astronaut Wally Funk and Oliver Daemen.
Interestingly Funk was 82 when she took the flight while Daeman was just 18 years old, which made them the youngest and oldest person to fly in space. In the 10-minute trip, the Blue Origin rocket soared past the altitude of about 62 miles (100 km) above the Earth.
