Blue Origin's New Shepard rocket has just taken an all-female crew of celebrity astronauts to space in a history-making event not seen in 60 years.

Jeff Bezos's fiancée, Lauren Sánchez, and popstar Katy Perry headlined a crew of six noteworthy women who blasted off from West Texas Monday morning on a nail-biting 11-minute suborbital flight during which the crew could be heard screaming on the broadcast.

The New Shepard rocket only took its famous passengers beyond the threshold of Earth's atmosphere and into space for roughly three minutes before returning home safely.

I did notice the effort to remain unsoiled, she is very aware of smudging the uniform.

Is this the same type of capsule Shatner went on a few years ago?

^^^^Plus it took guts to do this.^^^^

It really did, a lot of the people mocking them probably like a few drinks before flying commercially from one major airport to another.

I read somewhere that Jeff’s fiancee designed the suits. I’m too lazy search to find out if she’s the one that wore the eyebrow-raising outfit to the inauguration.

One of them screamed, “I just peed myself!”, and another said, “I sharted”.

A millionaires’ carnival ride.

The commentators on these Bluey Origin flights are so annoying.

“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.”

I don’t think they even did that... I think it is all staged theatrics and a complete fraud. I think he is paying people to claim they rode it when it is all just AI generated.

“How cool is that...it landed right in front of the stairs...”

I noticed that the last launch and “recovery”. How convenient all the press and cameras were set up and ready and waiting for them to open the door right? The Capsule was not even dirty or damaged on the outside even in the slightest. Absolutely pristine and polished clean. This is impossible...

No, wait. They’re going to bring them back instead of steering them into the sun? I am depressed.
