Honest question that I'm sure sounds snarky: Why was Bezos in a flight suit if he wasn't flying?
- handrous 5y agoTheater and/or ego. Same reason for the President to fly out to an aircraft carrier just off the US coast and pose for a bunch of photos while wearing a flight suit, before giving the infamous MISSION ACCOMPLISHED speech. Or for a different world leader to ensure that photos of him shirtless on horseback make it to the media from time to time.

That makes as much sense as a NFL team owner suiting up with helmet and shoulder pads just because his team is playing. I guess Bezos is free to dress up as an astronaut whenever he feels like it and gets out of bed, but is that something that happens whenever Blue Origin doesn't summon the media to do a press release?

- 0des 5y agoIs this sentence asking a question?
- eurasiantiger 5y agoIs a rhetoric question asking a question? Although, I suppose the choice of punctuation was more akin to tonal inflection than rhetoric.
