The Carmen line crossed by Bezos is the line of sight between Earth and space



WASHINGTON: The world's richest space tourist, Jeff Bezos, rode in a Blue Origin capsule inside his rocket New Shepherd, and in the meantime, his rocket took him into space and from there his capsule was released from the Blue Origin.

Many may have wondered after reading this news that Bezos may have gone into space but what is it that has crossed this Carmen line. This Carmen line is actually the line of demarcation between the earth and space. This line completes the Earth's boundary and begins the space boundary.

The Carmen Line is the boundary between Earth and space. It is 100 kilometers above sea level (54 nautical miles, 62 miles, 3,30,000 feet). The line was established in 1960 by the Federation Aeronautics International (FAI). The Federation of Aeronautics International (FAI) is the unit that holds the international record of aeronautics.

The Carmen Line is named after Theodore von Carmen (1881-1963). He was a Hungarian and an American physicist. He was active in aeronautics and astronautics. In 1957, he became the first person to delineate the boundaries of space and the Earth. He calculated the line to be 84 kilometers (2,75,000) high. Thus the line is known as the Carmen Line as he was the first person to try to calculate the boundary of space and the Earth.

Different countries and units define the boundaries of space for different purposes. International law does not define space or national airspace in any way. The boundary between the Earth's atmosphere and space is also not important for any kind of legal and regulatory matters. Aircraft and spacecraft fall into different jurisdictions. It is subject to various treaties. The space below the Carmen Line is considered to be the upper border of that part of the country, but no country has a border after this line.

It is worth mentioning that Jeff Bezos is said to have gone into space as he crossed the Carmen Line, but many experts are not ready to believe that he went into space as Richard Brans did not cross this line. They say that only those who cross the Carmen line can be said to have gone into space. Branson does not live up to these definitions or criteria. So now there is a controversy about Branson going into space.
