Jeff Bezos Shifts Focus from Amazon to Blue Origin, Advocates for Giant Space Stations

Jeff Bezos revealed that the main reason he stepped down as Amazon CEO was to focus on his rocket company, Blue Origin. Bezos stated that he wanted to add energy and urgency to Blue Origin's operations, and felt that he wouldn't have the bandwidth to manage both companies effectively. He emphasized his commitment to all stakeholders at Amazon and expressed that he has never worked harder since transitioning to his new role. Blue Origin, founded by Bezos in 2000, is competing against rivals such as SpaceX and Virgin Galactic and has developed three space vehicles.
