At 9:31 a.m. EDT yesterday, Katy Perry, in full hair and makeup wearing a designer cobalt blue bodysuit, was ready to make history. As she boarded flight NS-31 to make an 11-minute roundtrip journey to the edge of outer space, she endeavored to “put the ass in astronaut.” Which is so cool and brave to admit, given that she’s probably the first person ever to say those words in that particular order.

I'm too old and out of touch with younger culture to get some of the references, but this is sarcasm at its best.

I’ll bet they all screamed when that thing went into free fall like they do with airplane turbulence.

On the bright side, Jeff Bezos is spending his own money to provide safe space tourism.
A funny distraction from all the crazy our Deep State reaches into your back pocket to fund.

The girls looked pretty cool in their blue space rompers, indeed. But NOT as cool as this space girl with her death-ray gun, bare bum, and stilettos on the moon.

Surprised I haven’t seen a picture of them in their flight suits with the title,
“THE RIGHT STUFF”!

“the paint on the capsule isn’t even slightly scorched from reentry”
Their “reentry” was only from a suborbit. No scorching.

Jeff needs to launch “Da View Crew” to Mars. Give America a little relief. Throw fat ass Rosie on board too since the Irish Citizenship thingy doesn’t seem to be working out. LOL!

Nothing says the Right Stuff as Alan Shepherd after soiling his britches. I also use the “Shepherd’s Prayer” often.

Can Fanny Willis and Letitia James join that View Crew, too? How about a one-way ticket, too?

I’ll bet they all screamed when that thing went into free fall like they do with airplane turbulence. All of the SpaceX manned flights have live, in-cabin streaming. Telling that this flight captured absolutely none of the celebrity experience.
Musk is pushing the technical capability of humankind, Bezos is selling 10 minute carnival rides to the rich and famous.

There was only one person on the flight who had a clue about going into space (aerospace engineer). So if something happened to incapacitate that one…? Or was this like a carnival ride, all controlled by someone not actually on the ride?

The only real ASSet many women in the public eye today have is exposure of their boobs and butts ... not that I object
