>SpaceX, spending at least 5X less money
not to argue, but both Blue Origin and SpaceX are private and don't disclose ther financial information, to my best knowledge. So where is this number coming from?
- greglindahl 8y agoThere was a study comparing NASA's development costs to SpaceX's, which SpaceX has commented on. BO has never reached orbit, and doesn't say much about how much they've spent, so no one knows what their costs will be.
- derekp7 8y agoFor Blue Origin, they don't have any customers yet, so no income there. And it is public that Bezos just sold what, about a gigadollars worth of Amazon stock, presumably to dump into Blue Origin (which I think he's done about once a year?).
