Katy Perry, Lauren Sanchez and Gayle King SCREAM as they're blasted into space on Blue Origin rocket... as Jeff Bezos watches on nervously

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.

Katy is a lefty, but still kinda cute, unlike Miley Cyrus who is just sleazy and weird. And Katy has a normal hair color for her trip... Plus it took guts to do this.

Pretty thin stuff. Bezos sends ditzy morons into the edge of space for a few minutes while SpaceX sends skyscrapers into low earth orbit and then catches them to reuse.

They’re conducting research on how zero gravity effects extensive plastic surgery.

With all that money you'd think Bezos would pony up for some Fix-A-Flat but Nooooo.

You may have a point, there.

Let’s try a ten year experiment.

Pictures indeed!

...there must be a temptation though, “what does this button do?”.

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

LOL. I can’t wait to hear the deeply eloquent descriptions from the space gals.

“I was all, like, whoa, we’re really high, like, really really high!”

I think some competition is good. Keeps everybody on their toes. Backups are good.

Think about what would happen if the Boeing had been only option.

It seems we’re on the cusp of a new industrial revolution of sorts. Like the Wright Brothers, people laughed at the folly of it all. Fast forward 40 years or so, and the jet setters made airline travel cool and desirable. I applaud the American ingenuity, and good for the rich celebrities throwing their money into the economy.

Is Blue Origin the next Edsel? Maybe, but competition is a great driver of entrepreneurship.

We’ll learn how implants respond in space. I hope they don’t burst.

Ouch.

I just watched “Popeye” featuring Shelly Duvall. It’s a message from God.
