I saw Glen de Vries first time on Twitter with the crew who were preparing to Space with Blue Origin. He was one of “space tourists” and flew along with William Shatner aka Captain Kirk a month ago
I didn’t check who was Glen at that time and I thought he is one of Bezos’s buddies. Today, I came across the news Glen died in a plane crash a couple of days ago. Life is weird.
We are devastated to hear of the sudden passing of Glen de Vries. He brought so much life and energy to the entire Blue Origin team and to his fellow crewmates. His passion for aviation, his charitable work, and his dedication to his craft will long be revered and admired.
I did a search about who he was and why he was into space and found out this video. He was super excited for the future and shared what’s next for him…
