Chandigarh, July 21

The Internet roasted Jeff Bezos’ space adventure as the world’s richest man made history on Tuesday after he blasted off from the West Texas desert aboard his company Blue Origin’s New Shepard launch vehicle for a suborbital flight.

Bezos spent a few minutes in space along with his three crewmates and then celebrated with his family following the touchdown as Blue Origin tweeted, “Capsule, touchdown! Welcome home to #NewShepard’s first astronaut crew. A truly historic day.”

Netizens too did not hold back from posting some memes and reactions to Bezos’ space adventure. Bezos has earlier also been compared with Lex Luthor, the famous DC Comics supervillain, this time he was compared with Dr Evil from the movie Austin Powers.

The Tribune, now published from Chandigarh, started publication on February 2, 1881, in Lahore (now in Pakistan). It was started by Sardar Dyal Singh Majithia, a public-spirited philanthropist, and is run by a trust comprising five eminent persons as trustees.

The Tribune, the largest selling English daily in North India, publishes news and views without any bias or prejudice of any kind. Restraint and moderation, rather than agitational language and partisanship, are the hallmarks of the newspaper. It is an independent newspaper in the real sense of the term.

The Tribune has two sister publications, Punjabi Tribune (in Punjabi) and Dainik Tribune (in Hindi).
