As of 2026, Blue Origin is the leader in space tourism, sending more people into suborbit than its competitors combined. Jeff Bezos was part of the first mission in July 2021. Since then Blue Origin has sent almost 100 people into suborbit, including William Shatner, Gayle King, Katy Perry, and Michael Strahan. In early 2026 Blue Origin announced it was suspending its space tourism flights while it focuses resources on building a lunar lander that could be used on Artemis missions.
