On Sunday, Jeff Bezos posted a brief video on Instagram welcoming 18-year-old Oliver Daemen, who will join him on Blue Origin's New Shephard mission to the edge of space on Tuesday. When the anonymous individual who offered $28 million to take the flight backed out due to "schedule difficulties," Daemen was chosen to take the journey. Daemen, who won the seat in the June auction, is Blue Origin's first paying client.
