Space Race! - Blue Origin vs SpaceX. Who will take humans to space?

Both of these companies are in HUGE competition. Let's first talk about who runs these still non-profitable companies, well some people confuse in it that the CEO of Blue Origin is not Jeff Bezos, its Bob Smith and of-course the CEO of SpaceX is Elon Musk.

Let's first talk about SpaceX:

SpaceX is getting famous day by day with their ability to launch rockets in short period of time they are roaring in the market. Talking about their launches the one was Transporter-2, it was an second dedicated small satellite rideshare mission. Transporter-1 carried 143 satellite, SpaceX said that payload was greater in Transporter-2.

Their second launch was CRS-22(Commercial Resupply Service-22), it was a mission to ISS(International Space Station) that launched at 17:29:15 on 3June 2021. CRS-22 is contracted by NASA and is flown by SpaceX using a Cargo dragon 2.

Their is an exciting upcoming launch as well which they labeled something like- Starship To Land NASA Astronauts on the moon. In 2024 SpaceX could land NASA astronauts on moon. NASA have announced that they have selected Starship tp land the first astronauts on the moon surface since the Apollo program. According to SpaceX flying between lunar orbit and the surface of the Moon, Starship will carry crew and all of the supplies, equipment and science payloads needed for extensive surface exploration.

Yeah of-course there are other upcoming plans of SpaceX as well, the one being to send private passenger to ISS and next one their biggest plan, to send humans to Mars and make life multiplanetary. I will cover that in some other blog 😀.

Blue Origin:

 

Blue Origin's recent launch was as we all the the New Shepard which carried Billionaire Jeff Bezos, his brother Mark Bezos, Wally Fund and an 18 year old passenger Oliver Daemen.

Well, Blue Origins next crewed flight could come as soon as the end of September or the beginning of October 2021. They also have plans for Moon with their Blue Moon. Blue Moon is a robotic Space Cargo carrier and lander design concept for making cargo deliveries to the Moon. It is designed by Blue Origin and is planned to be operated by Blue Origin on a mission aimed for 2024.

                 The Main Thing

The main thing is that who will win. From the current situation its very visible that SpaceX will surely make it because they are just launching and launching + NASA supporting and funding them all this can result in success for them. Whereas Blue Origin is a little slow with only 15 successful flights done. But they are secretive as well there is not very much information you can find about Blue Origin. 

Humans to Space? Well I think it will be SpaceX which will 'actually' take humans to Space. Blue origin is do planning to get 2 more flights done as the end of this year but it will be SpaceX which will take humans to Moon, ISS and even Mars. If you just go over SpaceX's website you will find that they are offering you to contact them if you want to go to moon, see the blue planet from 300km, go to ISS or go to Mars, you can just contact them, literally its in their website check it out.
