Space tourism should mean you actually orbiting the earth not go up and down like rollercoaster.
Marketing=promising that is not
China copied SpaceX
China copied USA space stations, but USA don’t have space stations
true
@Save 🇺🇸 both are garbage.
Blue Origin's rocket design is hillarious.😂
Midlife crisis written all over it.
Yep, I know what you mean. 😂😂😂
China copied SpaceX
200 ft homage to their owner.
Girls love it
Your definition of 'Space Tourism" sounds similar to taking a vacation here on earth, but returning home just after you touch a nearest highway!
😂😂😂😂
😂😂😂
Dear mainstream media, for the love of God, please stop saying Blue Origin's New Shepard (and Virgin Galactic's Spaceship Two) go to ORBIT or NEAR ORBIT or to the "EDGE OF ORBIT" or anything like that. Orbit is not a PLACE. It is a TRAJECTORY, determined by orbital velocity. "Orbit" is the ability to continuously MISS hitting the Earth (or whatever you're orbiting) because you're moving so fast that you run out of ground to hit. Achieving even the lowest energy orbit around Earth requires an order of magnitude more energy than what New Shepard has available.
Dear god, thank you.
@@thiagomoreno8761 I see, then what terminology should they use?
@@MarkWTK the edge of space, not orbit. suborbital space flight.
There's a funny clip of an Australian morning show where the hosts can't stop cracking up at the look of New Shepard. Very funny, but there's a bit of a damper when the host asks the reporter how long the flight will last. She said, almost with an "I dunno shrug" that it would be "about an hour." !!!
This video is like a bizarre missive from an alternate universe where Space-X doesn't exist.
Its just like how Biden forget's Tesla when talking about EV's. Their can be no reason to NOT mention Space X -- unless you are corrupt.
In its odd way it is correct = SpaceX doesn't exist in the universe of sub-orbital tourists flights. It takes serious private astronauts to orbit. If they included SpaceX more in this vid then they'd have to explain the big difference between New Shepard & CAS vs F9 - which no mainstream journalist has ever done well.
This video is merely telling you about China's threat ,which looks like another US propaganda to remind people of China.
that's what happens when jeff bezos owns the media channel.
Elon Musk: “I I don’t really care what agency or company copies my technology, I just know I did it 1st.”
Elon Musk： I dont care anyone know that, actually, I use chinese intellectuals' intelligence as rouge to dress my cerveau. anyway, these chinese are behind scene et nobody can see. just as the 1st computer disigned et realized by chinese Jeffrey Chuan Chu

The more competition the better, we need as many parties as possible in this new space race.
Free market capitalism, baby!
@@joseemiliovalverdedomingue4831 Taxpayers' money capitalism.
Interesting to see where this is going.
Nowhere
Uhm... SpaceX has ALLREADY perfected the reusable rocket?
The F9 is not fully reusable, only the first stage is.
@@sams8502 is there any rocket which is? Well starship is going to be
@@usmaanali4153 Blue Origin's New Shepherd is fully usable right now but it can only barely reach outer space. Yes, the Starship will be fully reusable but it's not yet achieved that.
China copied SpaceX
@@swaythegod5812 everyone is trying to copy SpaceX
The “edge of orbit” is all I needed to hear to not watch this video.
spaceX already perfected it, they’ve already won the race a few years ago😂
trueee
When they mentioned that the company that manages to perfect a reusable rocket would capture a large portion of the market and reduce the strain on demand, I was extremely confused why space x wasn't even mentioned. That is exactly what is occurring for them. Then I realized, oh yeah, who bought the wall street journal. My question was answered....... The media is sickeningly distorted.
@@nathanlockman1554 so who bought the wall street journal, I want to know

@@nathanlockman1554 because they already dominant. Much more interesting in talking about their possible competitors in the future. Remember, corporations without competitors are very bad for the market.
WSJ: "edge of orbit"
Me: whaaaat!?
How spectacular they are
0:48 … so SpaceX & Blue Origin had one night stand?
😂😂😂😂😂😂
And that Product is crashed somewhere in moon
Nice video.
You call this similar design? Can I say all ships have similar design? WSJ needs to educate the journalists better science
Heh ...they didn't say it was copied.....they said similar design.....Why are you getting angry about
@@RA1_eAsur_1 are they similar design? If the they are similar design, so are v2 and Saturn
@@RA1_eAsur_1 China copied SpaceX
Typical western troll comment!
The thing about china and their copies it that they are just shameless when it comes to copying things. This rocket literally just looks like a spacex rocket that behaves and functions like a blue origin rocket. At least try to come up with something new, when creating something new.
The Chinese design is way more proper...
The most phallic space race. Ever.
All rockets are phallic to some extent...
Taiwanese support our motherland China, make China great again!
US is going to turn taiwan into ukraine v2 and afghan v2 all into one
yes and USA lost twice in those countries.
Thank you Taiwan for the billions of military orders per year. Hope you Chinese stay separated forever. Just keep poking China so those military orders dont dry up. Same as South Korea. Keep poking Kim.
Really....thn why Chinese go to usa for higher study.... currupt Chinese....
China is nothing in 2009....usa feed greedy China now China complete with usa and Europe....lol
Edge of the orbit, nice
China 🇨🇳 number one ☝️
they did not run disclaimer as a promotional video for blue origin {forgot space x} ignored space x
It looks like a SpaceX Dragon on top of a miniature falcon 9. And what is the point of using a catching arm for such a small rocket? It makes sense for Starship because there is no crane big enough to hoist the upper stage quickly.
China number one! US number three
"It makes sense for Starship because there is no crane big enough to hoist the upper stage quickly."
Actually, the catch tower idea is based on the desire to avoid the mass of landing legs on the booster. For one the size of SH the legs and their mechanisms would weigh a lot. Using the catch arms to do the lifting is gravy.
A smaller rocket is even more sensitive to items' mass as a percentage of the overall mass. China obviously copied the catch tower idea from SpaceX, but... once a concept is out there, copy the best.
Hype again!!!
Supongo que dentro de poco tambien habra diferencias del servicio a bordo, del catering y demas chucherias que hace mas divertido el volar con comodidad...😅
Space tourism: started in 2021 and has only been conducted by companies in the U.S.
Space tourism expert in early 2020: "China is a late-comer to space tourism"
Space tourism began much earlier than 2021. NASA put senators in space in the 80's, mislabeled them as qualified professional astronauts by calling them "mission specialists." They were definitely tourists on a joyride to get more shuttle funding from congress. Also, Soyuz has taken up (almost) plenty of tourists as this point. Millionaires as early as around 2000 to stay at the international space station.
Considering that Branson has been developing his Spaceship for over a decade now (Virgin Galactic was created in 2004) I can understand his point of view.
Interesting
Blue origin and Cas space: we both have a luxury reusable rocket to travel around the earth orbit
Space X: hold our electricTesla space ship
I REALLY hope to be able to fly to the moon one day and stay at a moon resort.
I see this happening in the late 2070s and maybe later.
The video style editing is much like VOX
There's this company called spacex which claims it can do both of these newbs proposed "feature" of going to space. Those spacex guys do love to kid around about it.
Are you seriously comparing the following three things?:
1) an orbital crew vehicle (with full life-support) that transports astronauts to the ISS or operates as a self-contained spaceship on free-flyer missions
2) suborbital vehicles that provide 4-5 minutes of weightlessness
3) a computer render of a nonexistent rocket that is an obvious Frankenstein of Falcon 9 booster, New Shepard capsule, and Starship launch/catch tower (you have to laugh at the fact that even the vaporware in China is stolen from the West)
The video then does a detailed feature comparison of New Shepard vs nonexistent PowerPoint rocket and nonexistent PowerPoint capsule, as if this is providing some kind of insight. As a bonus, it tosses out this gem - "NASA has already partnered with Blue Origin for its launch services" - which is true only if you squint at it sideways and redefine the meaning of partnership and launch service.
This video is absurd. What are you doing, Wall Street Journal?
Elon MuskRats are everywhere and they're offended by everything.
Well written.
They want that juicy engagement and you have given it to them.
Thank you for writing this.
@@Critical-Thinker895 socially resented beta males say what?
That Chinese space capsule looks very similar
The US rocket is circumcised, the chinese one uncircumcised. Makes sense. It doesnt matter how the tip is shaped, it's what you do with it.
Watch Blue Origin's first flight with the song The Nights - Avicii

Yep, point at the top, engines at the bottom. Remarkable isn't it?
@@maxmeier532 just make sure to clean it
Airbus planes look very similar to Boeing’s
They went out of their way to leave out SpaceX 😂😂
No kidding. Seems a whole lot like NASA was back when they were still smoking the "plant" that is the Soyuz (not having shuttle anymore) before 🇷🇺 went absolutely "batscat"/guano and they threatened to leave Mark Vande Hei marooned on the ISS when they depart March 30
The Chinese perfect the use of the 'Cut & Paste' function key to a whole different level.
Yes Chinese engineers copied a better one with lower price and better quality on a glance of your toy in several years, while Indians can make a dwarf one with your key spare parts after several decades.
@@raghuls5914 本来都是拥有文化底蕴的亚洲国家，我不明白如今印度为何会和跟在西方后面，而不是与中国一起带领亚洲重回世界中心。
They need to stop sending dilidodos into space & actually build shuttle ships. Do you want to let aliens know that we like erotic kinky stuff?
Cut it out!!!
Super powerful rocket in tech cities .
Most of Chinese tech company's leader do not have real technical background, and they all believe in "the great leap forward" style of schedule.......this is how they can bring in more investors and secure more founding.
Keep coping
@@burentori9620 lol true, it is amazing how much people seeth and cope.
Really underestimate china abilities.
How to show you have no idea what you're talking about in the first 8 seconds? "edge of orbit"
Only those who resemble the rockets would care about space tourism today.
🤣🤣🤣
The Karman line is not 'space'.
When in the first sentence the journalist says Jeff Bezos' New Shepherd reaches "the edge of orbit." big oof statement. So close, yet so far off
Hello . anyone checked Space X . WSJ is a direct copy of Space X . but not as good.
Funny how few times WSJ mentions SpaceX
But are they offsetting their carbon footprint?
China is the best
These are Just an E-Ticket ride at a Theme Park
only benefit would be reusability research
ans quentin parker makes the transactions
Funny how they ignore SpaceX
Cas space rocket hasn’t got a real rocket, so the final design may vary at end. Let’s wait and see
d contest?
I expect all rich people to go to the universe. So their villas on the earth are mine.
can we talk about the phallic nature of bezo’s rocket? 🚀 no? ok.
Tourism for Rich people, and pollution for poor ppl.
Getting Austin Powers vibes!!!
Cas Space's rocket is completely ripping of SpaceX
There are tons of similarities among all spaceships. There's something called similarities between optimal solutions. That doesn't necessarily mean IP violation. SpaceX projects are funded in a large part by US military with well kept secrets.
@@AA-pz4pv so u use VPN to use youtube from china? ahh okay i see why u copy and paste this in many comments
@@staph8022 No. I don't support badmouthing either US or China without a single shred of evidence. It damages the discourse. We need to deal with facts.
The most original thinking expressed by China.
Never seen a DJI before?
Yes all rockets looks same , all cars do have similar design
technically speaking, the rocket is originally made by China
@@kaze-xo It's kind of sad that is the best example
@@Ummba13 It's kind of sad that most of you Americans are still stuck with your stereotypes from decades ago:

It's funny cuz the exact same stereotype happened to Japan (40 years ago) and U.S. itself (when Europeans saw U.S. rising)
One word… starship
Battle of the Suborbital Space Hitachi
Surprising After long deep Hibernation of Blue Origin from America .
Suddenly it woken to Fly for Tourism racing towards Sky for StageRound Show in Orbits .
While CAS Scapecrft in persistent flight Spend on every test flight experiences have decided to go on Tourism industrial trail to offlift further advancement destination .
Guess Who can give a better technical performance :
1 ) The one Who was on deep hibernation for long gap technical performance stage Roadshow tourism performance . Or
2 ) The One Who is in Persistent to improve the Self improvement of Quality Controlled Technical performance in regularity for Tourism Industrial stepup Offlift trial improvement Quality Controlled test flight .
I smell a lawsuit since that Chinese pod looks an awfully alike the SpaceX Crew Dragon...
ctrl+C and ctrl + V
hmm, that chinese landing tower design looks familiar
And the capsule is a bit similar to crew dragon, but just a bit, it is very subtle /s
Almost like there's a physics reason why those have to be shaped like that.
@Han Zhang Thanks for letting me know what the direct translation of 'intellectual property theft' is from mandarin! I'm glad to have gotten those cultural biases out of the way ;)
WSJ Advertising for bezos
U.S 🇺🇲 it is!!! GO GO AMERICA 🇺🇲🇺🇲 URAAA!!
what the point to stay fews minutes in space
To be closer to the infinite. To tell flat eathers they're wrong. To witness something most haven't had the luxury to experience. To be able to call yourself a cosmonaut. Sadly I'm not that lucky.
"Space Tourism" to really be "Space Tourism" requires at least Orbital Capability. At best a ride to a "Space Station" and possible short stay there; optimally a Safe Repeat of the "Apollo-10" Mission. Not a Repeat of the First Manned Mercury "Up & Down".
""Space Tourism" requires at least Orbital Capability. "
Says who?
"optimally a Safe Repeat of the "Apollo-10" Mission."
Okay, but you just probably added another decimal place over an Earth orbital flight price.
"Not a Repeat of the First Manned Mercury "Up & Down"."
And yet we've always called Alan Shepard 'The First American In Space,' haven't we...?
WTH Chinese companies merging the dragon capsule an the new shepard to look like they are new to the pub
Looks like dragon capsule..
None of the ppl in this video have absolutely any experience in construction 🇺🇲🗽⚙️
At this point china doesn't surprise me anymore.
Spending whole life working money burning up to space for feeel of space… make sense
Orbiting earth need accelerating the rocket to at least 7.9 m/s2. Not everyone can endure.
gravity is more than that XD
This time China didn’t copy and paste.
I think Bezos might be trying to make up for one of his his shortcomings
Blue origin will drive you high.
„The Design looks a lot like … blue origins“ what? This looks like a dragon capsule on top of a falcon 9 booster with a base and engine that looks exactly like starship! I see great journalists there. How much did you get from Jeff for this commercial? Oh sorry I mean educational video
„NASA has partnered with blue origin…“ To my knowledge blue origin hasn’t won a single contract
Either thumbnail is just unfortunate or deliberate
Japanese female Ultraman needs this
what is that mean kerosene dirtier on fuel things? is that smell? if it does just a smell or shape i don't think it's important
pollution
what ever it is ...Space X is the king of this space jungle and they are the first pvt company wrt resuability .....
blue origin is to be called sue origin
Cant wait for CAS, its gonna be a blast.
Landing vertically doesn't leave much room for error and perturbation. The margin for safety could be greatly increased if it could slowly land in a hole dug within the earth with a diameter much wider than the rocket shaft diameter, lubricated with a boatload of a non combustible gel like substance to cushion and ease in the landing.
Didn’t SpaceX already conquer Re-usability?
No not really. SpaceX is trying and they became very very good at refurbishing the first stage but this makes them only semi-reusable. The true ship to be fully reusable yet being actually useful will be Starship or so SpaceX and all of us hope
This is Bezos blue origin rocket ship that takes tourists to the edge of orbit....
Yeah na, not even close lol
Spacex look alike
Zero comparison, you do your thing and I do mine…. That’s chinese approach .
praying for china to win in this
Emh
Battle of the egos. Just too bad keyboard warriors from )IN( do not have the competency to compete IRL, thus, they can only do it only in the comments section of social media platforms.
imagine talking about usa and space and not talking about spacex...
