Blue Origin plans to build ‘space business park’
Recommended for Preparatory Grades
A space business park
Aerospace Blue Origin recently took its first passengers to space. It also took William Shatner, the oldest person to space in its second flight. Blue Origin is a space travel company founded by Jeff Bezos, the founder of the company Amazon.
Now, on Monday, 25 October, Blue Origin announced its plans to build a space business park.
This space station for tourists and business people is called Orbital Reef. Blue Origin is working on this project with another company, Boeing. Other than Boeing, Blue Origin is also building the space station with some other organisations including Arizona State University.
Blue Origin says Orbital Reef will work as a “space business park” where space agencies, companies, business people and inventors can come and create new markets in space.

The park can have up to 10 people and it can be used to shoot films, do scientific experiments and also act as a “space hotel”. They aim to launch the spacecraft before 2030.
