    Not really.

    SpaceX goes orbital, if you followed the Inspiration4 mission, the team spent 6 months training for their jaunt into space.

    Blue Origin training course is a few weeks at most for going up on New Shepherd.

    Musk is CEO Tesla and Chief Engineer of SpaceX, Chairman of Twitter, etc… Bezo’s is Chairman of Amazon as a means to give up his position in Amazon. Bezo’s has 6 months to give up, Musk doesn’t.

    Also did you not watch the launch? Shatner was having a profound moment and Bezo’s stomped on it.

    Jared Isaacman (billionaire) did Inspiration4 and will do Polaris for the challenge. I get the impression Bezo did it for bragging rights. I think Musk is chasing being responsible for starting a Mars colony and probably wouldn’t even care about going to Mars
