The Blue Origin NS-31 mission successfully launched a star-studded all-women crew, including Katy Perry and Gayle King, marking a historic achievement in commercial spaceflight. The mission is significant as it is the first all-women crew to fly since Valentina Tereshkova's solo flight in 1963. Prior to launch, Jeff Bezos expressed his excitement and pride for the crew, while Oprah Winfrey celebrated King's momentous journey. The business-savvy Perry felt no nerves ahead of the flight, which lasted just 11 minutes, showcasing both glamour and empowerment in the field of space exploration.
"When you get back, I can't wait to hear how it's changed you. I love all of you. See you soon, Godspeed."
"It goes beyond this moment of just going up in space. I think this will be an everlasting experience."
