Blue Origin and Katy Perry only made history.
Jeff Bezos’s aerospace company launched its NS-31 mission today (14 April), which led to the pop star and his five women crew sent to the suborbital space on a brief mission. Liftoff Blue Origin’s West Texas launched at 9:30 pm (1330 GMT) from the launch site.
It was the first all-female spaceflight since June 16, 1963, when the Soviet Union’s Valentina Tereskova launched the Earth’s orbit on a three-day mission. Tereskova flew from himself, however, therefore NS -31 was not the facility of a male crew before the NS -31 Maltirson Human Spaceflight.
Perry on the board was one of the best -selling pop stars of all time; GAIL King, co-stool of TV show “CBS Morning”; NASA rocket scientist Aisha Bowe, the founder and CEO of the technology company Stemboard; Filmmaker Karian Flynn; Biostronatics researcher, writer and Nobel Peace Prize Nominated Amanda Guayen, who became the first Vietnamese woman in space; And journalist and writer Lauren Scheme, who is also a fiance of Bezos. Sรกnchez organized the flight.
Perry took a Daisy Phool into space in honor of her 4 -year -old daughter. In a blue origin interview before the launch, he tore him thinking about his family.
“The message for my family is that I love them very much, and I love very much, and I am very grateful to represent a fearless woman in my family,” Perry said.
King’s long -time friend Oprah Winfrey saw the launch with the King’s family.
Vinfrey said, “I have never been proud of my friend compared to today. Never was proud because it is bigger than just going into space.” “There is only a time that all women are leaving for the first time. You know, there will be other trips, but for the first time there is only one time.”
“Oh God, it was amazing,” the king said that he hugged Bezos after landing. He succumbed to the ground and placed his head on the earth as soon as he left the capsule.
The NS-31 began when New Shepard removed the pad from the pad at about 30 miles (48 km) in the north of the van horn at the launch site of Blue Origin in West Texas. It hoves over the 62-mile-high (100 km) Kรกrmรกn line, which most officers recognize as the boundary of external space (although some debate).
Perry and Crew experienced a few minutes of weightlessness and the Earth was seen against the blackness of space.
Six women flew with cheers and screams, with Jubilant flying.
“Look at the moon!” A crew said that they reached the space.
“Oh God, this is our pink moon!” What did it look like like Perry.
‘Very good!’
But all this was quickly over: The new Shepard Crew Capsule touched under parachutes, about 10.5 minutes after the launch today, which was sending a cloud of dust to the West Texas sky.
The new Shepard Booster returned a few minutes before, causing a vertical, operated touchdown on its landing pad planned approximately 7.5 minutes after the launch.
Perry grabbed Daisy, which he took to space in the sky after leaving the capsule and kissed the ground after exiting.
This was the 31st overall mission Blue generationReusable new Shepard Vehicle – Hence the name – and to take the 11th crew. (Other people have got research flights.)

Each crew put itself in the NS-31 mission patch. For example, a small scale symbolizes the advocacy of Guayin for civil rights and social changes, and an explosion represents the “global effect in music, pop culture and philanthropy” of Firework Perry, ” According to blue origin.
“Firework,” of course, is also one of Perry’s most famous songs. Perry said that she was taking 300 restbands for the children of a camp, which she and her sister were driving, as well as a Daisy Phool in honor of her young daughter Daisy.
Perry can now be the most famous person to fly in space. (Neel Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin are definitely contenders, but they are in a separate category, gaining their fame with their spaceflight.)
She is not the first celebrity to be sent by Blue Origin for the final Frontier, however: actor William Shaton, NFL Hall of Famer Michael Sthan and Bezos themselves have rode all the new Shepard from the Sabarbit Space.
In fact, Bezos flew on New Shepard’s first crew mission, which launched on July 20, 2021-52nd anniversary of uplo 11 moon landing.
