Kent, Washington-based aerospace launch equipment manufacturer and services provider Blue Origin announced today that the unnamed bidder who spent a whopping $28 million for the maiden manned spaceflight of its New Shepard launch vehicle has decided to postpone their journey to space. The New Shepard will take to the skies later this month, and its crew will include retail billionaire Jeff Bezos, his brother, veteran flight test pilot Wally Funk and Oliver Daemen, an 18-year-old with a private pilot's license. Unlike Virgin Galactic's SpaceShip One, which requires pilots to control its attitude, the New Shepard is an autonomous vehicle that lifts off on a rocket from Blue Origin's launch facilities in Culberson County, Texas.
