Jeff Bezos’ company Blue Origin has sold nearly $100 million worth of tickets for future passenger f lights into space, and the intended vehicle for that rare and expensive opportunity is the New Shepard rocket.
For those who can’t afford the $half-a-mill or so those seats are expected to cost, Interplanetary Art has a 1:72 scale model to keep the dream alive.
The real-deal rocket has two new boosters, so it offers enough thrust to make the Earth move, but even so, the $475.85 plus delivery might leave some feeling shafted. If you’re keen, models are available from Etsy.com.
