First All-Female Space Crew Makes History with Blue Origin

For the First Time in History, an All-Female Crew Soars to Space! For the first time ever, a completely female crew has launched into space — and it’s nothing short of iconic. Aboard Blue Origin’s New Shepard rocket, this mission wasn’t just a technological feat — it was a cultural moment.

Katy Perry, Gayle King, alongside a rocket scientist, a civil rights activist, a pilot, and a filmmaker, made up this star-studded crew that soared past the edge of Earth into suborbital space. Though the flight lasted just 11 minutes, the impact will last much longer — with about 2 minutes of weightlessness and an altitude of 65 miles, the team officially crossed into space.
