Jeff Bezos has reached space on his rocket company's first flight with passengers. He was the second billionaire in just over a week to ride his own spacecraft. The Amazon founder soared to space with a hand-picked group in his Blue Origin capsule. Passengers included his younger brother, Mark; Oliver Daemen, an 18-year-old from the Netherlands; and Wally Funk, an 82-year-old aviation pioneer from the Dallas area.
