Blue Origin, Jeff Bezos' space venture, will Replace Ceo Bob Smith with outgoing Amazon executive Dave Limp. Smith is retiring on December 4 but will remain with the company until January 2 for a smooth transition. Limp will join Blue Origin during a crucial phase, as the company needs to ramp up production of its BE-4 rocket engines, restart flights of its space tourism rocket New Shepard, launch its New Glenn rocket, and fulfill a NASA contract for a crewed lunar lander. Limp was previously in charge of Amazon's Alexa, Echo, and Ring units.
