Amazon founder Jeff Bezos uploaded his first ever Instagram post on Thursday, a video flaunting Blue Origin's huge new rocket facility in Florida.
The video, which appears to have been recorded using a drone, gives a sweeping look of the enormous facility's exterior before zooming in on Bezos himself, who is sat on the building's roof.

Propped nonchalantly in a camping chair and wearing aviator shades, the multi-billionaire, 53, holds a sign in one hand that reads: 'Rocket factory coming soon'.
The plant - based near the Kennedy Space Centre in Florida - is set to build Blue Origin's heavy-lift New Glenn 'megarocket', which will be used to launch space satellites.
The first flight of the reusable rocket is planned for 2021, though no official date has been set yet.
The rocket will be powered by Blue Origin’s BE-4 engine, and is intended to carry passengers as well as deliver orbital payloads.
