Billionaire CEO Jeff Bezos’ Blue Origin space flight is set to take off today with known figures like Pop Star Katy Perry, Lauren Sanchez in an all female crew.
Pop Star Katy Perry with fellow celebrities and scientists are all set to board the Blue Origin space flight today. The all female crew are making history by gearing up for this suborbital space flight for a milestone event in Space Tourism and Women in STEM.
The suited up women – Singer Katy Perry, Movie Producer Kerianne Flynn, former journalist Lauren Sanchez, former NASA Scientist Aisha Bowe, Bioastronautics Research Scientist Amanda Nguyen, and Co- host of ‘CBS Mornings’ Gayle King are all set to take on this fairly brief journey to the edge of the space.
The Monday morning of 14 April, 2025 at exactly 8.30 PM, the six women crew will be travelling in the Blue Origin from the Launch Site One, in West Texas. The event has attracted huge reception from the public mostly due to the marketing of an all women crew, which was first achieved by Valentina Tershkova for three days in 1963.
With known faces like Katy Perry, Lauren Sanchez and Kerianne Flynn, the Blue Origin Suborbital space launch has become the headlines. The crew will be docked up in ‘The Shepard’ rocket that will travel at the high pace, three times the speed of sound.
The Blue Origin flight will stay at the Suborbital level, just above the edge of Earth’s atmosphere and the crew will experience zero gravity and weightlessness for a few minutes, returning through parachutes in a while.
Ahead of her space voyage, Katy Perry spoke with the Associated Press that she has “always been interested in astrophysics and interested in astronomy and astrology and the stars. We are all made of stardust and we all come from the stars.”
The Blue Origin Space Launch can be seen through the Blue Origin Live Stream in X, also available in CBS, where the channel has a separate segment called ‘Gayle goes to Space’.
