and founder of Blue Origin LLC, smiles while speaking at the unveiling of the Blue Origin New Shepard system during the Space Symposium in Colorado Springs, Colorado, U.S., on Wednesday, April 5, 2017. Jeff Bezos, chief executive officer of Inc. Blue Origin’s New Shepard flights will be brief, up-and-down trips, though they will go more than 62 miles above Earth, which is widely considered to be the edge of outer space. Suborbital flights differ greatly from orbital flights of the type most of us think of when we think of spaceflight. The flight will follow a similar profile to Shatner’s flight and Bezos before him, spending just 10 minutes off the ground. He was inducted into the Pro Football Hall of Fame in 2014. Strahan spent 15 season in the NFL, all of them with the New York Giants, where he won the Super Bowl with them in 2007. Strahan announced his plans to join the flight during a segment on Good Morning America Tuesday morning, noting that Blue Origin had him measured for his flight suit and had him test out one of the New Shepard capsule’s seats to ensure he’d fit. That means the passengers will have a bit less wiggle room than prior customers, especially Strahan, who is six feet, five inches tall. On the company’s two previous flights - including the July flight that sent Bezos himself to space - only four of the seats were taken up. This flight will mark the first time that Blue Origin will fill all six seats on its New Shepard rocket and capsule, which is named for Alan Shepard. Blue Origin said that Strahan and Shepard Churchley will be “honorary guests,” much like the last celebrity Blue Origin sent to the edge of space, William Shatner, and have not paid for their tickets. Strahan and Laura Shepard Churchley, whose father Alan Shepard went on a suborbital flight in 1961 and later walked on the moon, will be joined by investors Dylan Taylor, Evan Dick, and Lane Bess, as well as Bess’ adult child, Cameron Bess. Liftoff is slated for 9:30 am CT on December 9 from Blue Origin launch facilities near the rural town of Van Horn, Texas. Strahan will be joined by the daughter of the first American astronaut and four paying customers.
