How to watch Jeff Bezos Blue Origin Flight Launch? Time, Live Stream details are here

Billionaire entrepreneur Jeff Bezos’ Blue Origin is set to launch its first manned mission on Tuesday (July 20) at 6:30 PM IST. The Amazon boss will take off from the West Texas facility with his brother Mark, and an 82-year-old aviation pioneer Wally Funk who was trained to go space in the 1960s but was denied the opportunity due to gender discrimination, and an 18-year-old first paying teenage tourist Oliver Daemen onboard the fully automated  New Shepard rocket with no pilots.

"To see the Earth from space, it changes you. It changes your relationship with this planet, with humanity," Bezos said in an Instagram video announcing the launch. "I want to go on this flight because it's a thing I've wanted to do all my life. It's an adventure. It's a big deal for me.”

The sub-orbital flight will last for up to 10 minutes as it launches to the Kármán line, a distance of 100km (62 miles), and returns, aiming to achieve105 kilometres (about 65 miles) maximum height farther than the Virgin Galactic’s VSS Unity. The crew is expected to witness three minutes of weightlessness and mesmerizing view out of the largest windows ever built into a space capsule and here’s how to watch it LIVE.
