Many have dreamed of going to space; some want to visit the Moon, while others think about traveling around the Earth. But thanks to Jeff Bezos' company Blue Origin Enterprises, space tourism is becoming a reality. A famous all-female crew will fly into space on Blue Origin’s New Shepard spacecraft, and one of them will be mega-star Katy Perry. The «California Gurls» singer will join a group of successful women as they journey into space. So, what is the goal of their flight, and when will it happen?
Below are all the details about the Blue Origin all-female crew.
In addition to Katy, the Blue Origin all-female crew will also include Lauren Sanchez, Gayle King, Aisha Bowe, Amanda Nguyen, and Kerianne Flynn.
Lauren is a journalist engaged to Jeff; Gayle is a television journalist and host; Aisha is an aerospace engineer; Amanda is a civil rights activist, and Kerianne is a film producer.
Katy, Gayle, Lauren, Aisha, Amanda, and Kerianne are scheduled to launch from Launch Pad No. 1 in Texas on April 14, 2025, at 8:30 a.m. local time.
Everyone can watch the famous crew’s liftoff from Texas live on the Blue Origin website, which starts approximately 90 minutes before the launch. The launch will also be broadcast on YouTube and through Blue Origin’s X account.
Katy spoke with ITV News before the Blue Origin launch, emphasizing her excitement to learn more about space travel.
«I'm really excited about all the engineering», - said the «Firework» singer. «I'm interested in learning more about STEM and just the math required to achieve these kinds of things».
Katy explained that she has dreamed of flying through the sky for many years. «I've always been interested in astrophysics and fascinated by astronomy and astrology and stars», - she told the publication. «I feel like we’re made of stardust and we all come from stars, and it will be exciting to see them twinkle from that place. And also to have such respect for Mother Earth when we see her in that way. Many people, not many, but people who have gone had really deep thoughts and brought ideas that changed the world».
During a previous interview with Elle, which invited the entire Blue Origin all-female crew for an interview, Katy joked that her first reaction to the invitation was, «What should I wear?»
«But seriously, I’ve wanted to go to space for almost 20 years», - Katy revealed. «I've explored all possible commercial options. Even when Blue Origin first talked about commercial space travel, I was like, 'Sign me up! I’m first in line.' And then they called me, and I was like, 'Really? I’m getting an invitation?'»
It seems that Jeff will not be accompanying his fiancée Lauren and the other members of the Blue Origin crew on April 14
