With more and more billionaires like Jeff Bezos and Charles Bronson focusing their resources on space, there’s a huge question mark as to why Bill Gates has not done the same. Microsoft’s co-founder says he has his attention focused on other things like eradicating polio.
Bill Gates Shares Why He Isn’t Interested in the Space Race
Bill Gates, who is seemingly not that interested when it comes to the space race. According to the story by CNET, people should not be expecting to see Bill Gates join other billionaires when it comes to the space race.
This means that Gates will not likely be establishing a space-focused company or even heading to space himself. The billionaire is reportedly more interested in philanthropic works which includes eradicating polio by 2022.
Billionaires Participating in the Space Race
Other billionaires are heavily invested in the space race. These include Elon Musk, the CEO and founder of SpaceX, Jeff Bezos, who is the founder of Blue Origin and briefly flew towards the edge of space, and Richard Branson, who beat Jeff Bezos to space by nine days with his Virgin Galactic
Bill Gates is reportedly different and told CNN that he is more concerned in working on a way to eradicate diseases on Earth instead of reaching for the stars. Gates, the co-founder of Microsoft as well as the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation, said that the space race is mostly a commercial market.
