On Monday, a historic all-female crew, including Katy Perry and Lauren Sanchez, will embark on a Blue Origin mission to the edge of space. Launching from Texas, the crew will ascend over 100 kilometers into the atmosphere, marking a significant milestone as the first all-woman flight since Valentina Tereshkova in 1963. The flight will last around 10 minutes, providing a fleeting experience of weightlessness. This venture also coincides with the upcoming marriage of Sanchez and Jeff Bezos, set for June in Venice.
