Elon is the media whore with Space X, but Bezos' Blue Origin is arguably the more interesting company/project.

This AM, they are launching New Shepard's 9th mission from Van Horn, TX.

New Shepard is intended to commercialize space flights. They are sending up "Mannequin Skywalker" in the capsule today to gather info.

Has Blue Origin put a rocket in orbit and recovered it yet?

Bezos and Musk should launch themselves to space so I can stop hearing about them.

I'm surprised they don't have high-altitude drones getting much better views.

Agreed with above. The goal and mission is a little different but I am most interested Stratolaunch (Paul Allen). Hopefully they will have a takeoff in the next few months.
