Jared Isaacman, the billionaire founder of payments platform company Shift4, has recently made headlines for his evolving relationships within the space industry. Previously known for his close ties to SpaceX, Isaacman has now been announced as President-elect Donald Trump's pick to lead NASA.
Isaacman's shift in alliances is evident as he is now seen collaborating with Blue Origin, a company that could potentially pose a significant challenge to SpaceX if its New Glenn launch vehicle achieves success in the competitive launch market.
Sharon Hagle, who had the unique opportunity to journey to space aboard one of Blue Origin's suborbital New Shepard rockets, shared a photo on Monday showing her alongside Isaacman inside the facilities of the aerospace manufacturer.
