Blue Origin’s upcoming New Shepard mission will make history as the first all-woman spaceflight, featuring Jeff Bezos’s fiancée Lauren Sánchez, pop star Katy Perry, and journalist Gayle King.
Sánchez, an experienced helicopter pilot, will bring her aviation background to the mission. She’s engaged to Bezos, the founder of Blue Origin.
The fully autonomous spacecraft will launch this spring, carrying the crew past the Kármán line for a 3-4 minute experience of weightlessness during an 11-minute journey before returning to Earth.
Those looking to experience spaceflight themselves must place a $150,000 fully refundable deposit to begin the ticketing process. You can book your flight here.
