Reply to comment by toodroot in SpaceX, Blue Origin Executives Tapped as US Space Council Advisers by Soupjoe5

Weird stuff. Bezos actually put in huge effort to poach her for Blue Origin while he hangs out on his superyacht.. Wonder what that says about his space knowledge.

Bezos has an undergraduate degree in electrical engineering and computer science. He probably knows enough to do what he's doing with Blue Origin -- he hired Rob Meyerson to lead Blue Origin in 2003, 3 years after founding it.

What do those have to do with aeronautics? Bezos has no formal training in rocketry. He’s about as qualified as I am with my computer engineering undergrad degree.
