Katy Perry & Lauren Sanchez to Fly Jeff Bezos’ Blue Origin Space Mission

As a gaming enthusiast, I’m buzzing with excitement about joining Katy Perry and Lauren Sanchez on Jeff Bezos’ Blue Origin space mission in the spring of 2025! This groundbreaking flight will make us the first all-female crew to venture into space since Valentina Tereshkova’s solo journey back in 1963. What an incredible opportunity to be part of history in the making!

Here’s a lowdown on what’s about to happen and more.

Katy Perry along with Lauren Sanchez to join Blue Origin mission

The aerospace firm established by Jeff Bezos, known as Blue Origin, has unveiled an extraordinary mission called NS-31. This mission is unique because it will be crewed entirely by women. Included in the six-person team are well-known figures like pop sensation Katy Perry and Lauren Sanchez, who is engaged to Bezos. Also on board are prominent individuals such as CBS Mornings co-host Gayle King, aerospace engineer Aisha Bowe, civil rights activist Amanda Nguyen, and film producer Kerianne Flynn.

Katy Perry, expressing amazement, stated that if someone had told her she’d be part of the inaugural all-female astronaut team in space, she would have found it believable. As a child, she admitted that nothing seemed impossible to her imagination. The upcoming NS-31 mission marks the 11th human space flight for Blue Origin’s New Shepard rocket, which has already sent 52 individuals into space (as reported by Newsweek).

Lauren Sanchez, an Emmy-winning journalist and philanthropist, played a significant part in coordinating the expedition. Blue Origin commended her leadership by saying, “She is proud to guide a group of explorers on a mission that will change their view of Earth, encourage them to share their personal tales, and leave a lasting impression that will motivate future generations.

The unmanned New Shepard spacecraft will fly for eleven minutes, surpassing the Kármán line – a universally acknowledged marker of space’s edge – without any pilots on board.

This endeavor forms a part of Blue Origin’s broader initiative to make space travel more democratic and welcoming. Since their inaugural crewed flight in 2021, they have sent multiple individuals into space. Notable figures such as the founder himself, Michael Strahan, and William Shatner are among these space travelers.
