Historical Landing. Trips to space anyone?

"Blue Origin’s New Shepard space vehicle successfully flew to space, reaching its planned test altitude of 329,839 feet (100.5 kilometers) before executing a historic landing back at the launch site in West Texas."

When it's mid flight, it looks like a dongrocket. But super impressive that it vertically landed successfully

That's cool! Can future versions of this rocket take people to Mars?

interesting reading the differences of the two..

This rocket looks far easier to use and seemingly worked like a charm, however it seems like the SpaceX rockets are trying to achieve much more than Bezo's current model here
