Amazon billionaire Jeff Bezos is going into space on July 20 on a reusable rocket made by his space exploration company, Blue Origin. So is his younger brother Mark. And now, pledging $28 million, a mystery bidder has won an auction to join them on the suborbital ride.
The mission is estimated to last about 11 minutes. That works out to $2.545 million per minute. Or $42,424 per second.

That's more than I pay for an hour of her time. Luckily I don't need 11 minutes.
