Jeff Bezos predicts we'll have 1 trillion humans in the solar system one day.
"The dynamism that I have seen over the last 20 years in the internet where incredible things have happened in really short periods of time," Bezos said. "We need thousands of companies. We need the same dynamism in space that we've seen online over the last 20 years. And we can do that."
Elon Musk's SpaceX and Richard Branson's Virgin Galactic are also eyeing commercial space travel. The effort is "the most important thing" that Bezos is working on, he said, edging out e-commerce site Amazon and the Bezos-owned Washington Post., the U.S. Air Force selected Blue Origin and others to develop a domestic launch system prototype. The Pentagon deal awards Blue Origin $500 million for the development of the New Glenn rocket.
"We are going to continue to support the [Department of Defense]," Bezos said. "If big tech companies are going to turn their back on the U.S. Department of Defense, this country is going to be in trouble."
