Jeff Bezos is set to launch an all-female crew, including Katy Perry, Gayle King, and Lauren Sánchez, into space on Blue Origin’s 11th human flight. The crew will embark on an 11-minute suborbital flight to the edge of space and back, making history as the first all-female crew to attempt such a mission. While not technically the first all-female crew to reach the Kármán line, the crew members are excited to experience space in a glamorous way, with hair and makeup done for the mission. The crew is composed of well-known public figures, including a pop star, a civil rights activist, a film producer, and a former Nasa rocket scientist. This mission aims to highlight significant moments in space exploration and gender representation, as well as showcase Blue Origin’s development of reusable spacecraft for human spaceflight. As the crew prepares for liftoff, the world watches as these women break barriers and make history in space travel.
