Was the capsule really named “Champagne Cork 6”?
She is not smart enough to be scared
She thinks she is slim like a willow
She’s just skinny and bony and tall
If she hadn’t been blessed with two warts on her chest
She’d have no figure at all

I am SO stealing that....
this is nothing but a PR stunt.
Blue Origin is a joke.
Founded in 2000, and only just this year FINALLY managed an orbital flight.
SpaceX by comparison was founded in 2002 and launched its first orbital flight in 2008.
11 minute sub orbital flight, this isn’t even noteworthy on any level, other than its a glorified tourist flight.
Only real difference between this and had they got on a helicopter for a 15 minute grand canyon tour is that this went higher on a rocket.. that’s it.
Fact the press is making a bigger deal over this than Elon getting the astronauts home tells you all you need to know about the news.
Russians and American pilots in winged craft went this high half a century ago
One seventh ceiling of Elon minimal orbits
10 minutes of low gravity
It’ll be fun but it’s a gimmick CBS is milking
So now space is becoming like the hollywood walk of fame, a who’s who of who cares.
Same as poppin’ a cork out of a champagne bottle.
Oprah would have went but she sent the wife instead.
One of the women passengers screamed out “oh, my goddess!” when they saw the moon. Slightly nausea inducing.
So after unbuckling they floated for a minute or so before having to return to their seats. So was this really worth it?
So now they are “astronauts”?????
*ROFLMAO*
And Space explorers, LOL, what a joke.
Filthy rich, with big breasts and knowing the right people or decades of dedication to science to become an astronaut. The degradation of the people who work hard to to be successful continues.
At least they can say “I didn’t just play an astronaut in the movies or on TV, I actually went into outer space.”
They also can say, as elites, they all voted for Hillary and Kamala, proving to themselves they don’t have to be intelligent to be astronauts . . .
How cool is that...it landed right in front of the stairs...

Girl Power!
look, if Katy Perry really wanted to “help” her career get back on track, all shes gotta do is go topless...boom!, instant fortune.
Hopefully a one way trip.
We can make fun of them and all, but I still think it would be bad ass to get to go up in a rocket like that...
