Model and author Emily Ratajkowski criticized Blue Origin's recent space launch featuring an all-female crew, including Katy Perry, as an environmental travesty. She expressed her disgust on TikTok, stating the launch is a product of a company that is 'single-handedly destroying the planet'. Public reactions have also labeled the flight as an 'indulgent joyride'. Despite claims of efficient reusability in New Shepard's design, Ratajkowski questioned the moral implications and resource consumption of such missions, urging a reconsideration of priorities in the face of global environmental issues.
"That space mission this morning... You care about Mother Earth, and it's about Mother Earth, and you're going up in a spaceship that is built and paid for by a company that is single-handedly destroying the planet."
