Katy Perry Returns from Blue Origin's Historic All-Female Space Flight

Katy Perry participated in Blue Origin's historic NS-31 mission, marking the first all-female crewed space flight since 1963. Alongside notable figures like Gayle King and Aisha Bowe, the crew experienced approximately three minutes of weightlessness during their 11-minute journey to the Kármán line. Perry sang a rendition of 'What a Wonderful World' while observing the Earth from the spacecraft, emphasizing that the moment was about collective achievement and inspiration for future women. Upon returning, she expressed that the experience was second only to motherhood and brought a daisy flower as a symbol of resilience and love for her daughter. Jeff Bezos welcomed the crew back, with Perry famously kissing the ground after exiting the capsule. This mission highlights the growing inclusion of women in space exploration and the significance of such milestones in changing perceptions around women's roles in science and technology.
