Jeff Bezos sees no threat from Elon Musk-Donald Trump ties in space race

Jeff Bezos in an interview with Reuters on Sunday said he does not think SpaceX CEO Elon Musk will use his close ties with U.S. President-elect Donald Trump to undercut his space company Blue Origin, adding he feels “very optimistic” about the incoming administration’s space agenda.

“Elon has been very clear that he’s doing this for the public interest and not for his personal gain. And I take him at face value,” said Bezos, founder of Blue Origin which rivals SpaceX in the space industry.

Bezos is in Cape Canaveral, Florida for the debut launch of Blue Origin’s New Glenn, a 30 story-tall rocket that is expected to chip away at SpaceX’s market dominance and kick start Blue Origin’s long-delayed entrance in the satellite launch business.

Musk, who spent more than a quarter billion dollars to help elect Trump, has had the president-elect’s ear on space matters and last month said the U.S. should send missions straight to Mars instead of going to the moon first, raising industry concerns of a major shakeup to NASA’s space exploration program.

“My own opinion is that we should do both – we need to go to the moon and we should go to Mars,” Bezos said when asked if he was concerned about changes to NASA’s moon program.
