On Monday, Lauren Sánchez, alongside notable women like Katy Perry and Gayle King, will embark on Blue Origin's NS-31 mission. Scheduled to launch from Texas at 8:30 a.m. CT, the flight represents the first all-female space crew since 1963. The crew, chosen by Sánchez, encompasses a variety of backgrounds, including science, media, and activism. They will experience weightlessness and contribute their narratives from space, showcasing women's progress in a traditionally male-dominated field.
Sánchez emphasized her crew selection process by stating, "They’re all storytellers in their own right. They're going to go up to space and be able to spread what they felt in different ways."
This launch aims to mark a significant moment in history as the first all-female space crew since 1963, highlighting the progress of women in aviation and space exploration.
