On 25 February (local time) Space Company Blue Origin, billionaire Space Company of Billionaire Jeff Bezos launched its 10th Space Tourism Mission, which included six passengers, including Indian-hero Tushar Mehta, who are in suborbital space.
Blue Origin’s Sabarbit New Shepard vehicle flew at 10:50 pm on Tuesday at EST (15:50 GMT and 9:50 AM local Texas time) after a slight delay due to a hold with its West Texas facility.
According to the launch commentator Safart, six crew members of the New Shepherd (NS) spacecraft named themselves “Perfect 10”.
“Well, it makes me understand the right understanding, given the fact that it is in fact, our 10th human flight.” He said during the livestreaming of the Blue Origin Mission.
The correct 10 mission of Blue Origin was the 10th crew mission of the vehicle, including a re -purpose booster and a re -purpose capsule.
Ten minutes in space
After launching at the suborbital space, the NS -30 flight stayed there with the crew members for about seven minutes. The vehicle booster was seen touching a dusty Texas desert seven minutes after the lift. Three minutes after the touchdown, the flight capsules were seen returning to the ground.

Blue Origin called her latest flight NS -30 as it was the 30th overall flight of New Shepherd.
New Shepard has now blown 52 people into space, including repeating astronauts, including its latest mission.
The company has not ascertained how much the ticket is to occupy the cost of their flight.
New Shepherd flights give passengers experience weightlessness during riding, as well as to see the earth against the background of the darkness of space. Each flight lasts about 10–12 minutes, from liftoff to capsules touchdown.
Tushar Mehta among six crew members
The ‘Perfect 30’ flight consisted of six crew members, including Lane Base, Jessus Kaleja, Ellen Chia Hyde, Dr. Richard Scott, Tushar Shah and members of an unknown sixth crew were included.
The NS-30 mission was the second flight of the lane base with the blue origin.
According to Jeff Bezos’s company, Tushar Mehta is a partner and co-head in a quantitative hedge fund in New York City. He studied physics as a graduate in mit and high-energy experimental particle physics in MIT. He and his wife, Sara, are philanthropists, who focus on addressing poverty, health and education issues.
Mehta became the second Indian origin after taking a blue original flight after Gopi Thotakura.
