Blue Origin, owned by Amazon, Jeff Bezos, made a 11-minute flight, starting from the Cosmodrome in Texas. On board is a completely female crew. This is the second such case in history since 1963.
Among the crew members are singer Katy Perry, the bride of Jeff Bezos Lauren Sanchez, ex-employee NASA Aisha Bow, film producer Kerianne Flynn, activist Amanda Nguyen and the host of CBS Gail King. The flight that they became participants is one of the Blue Origin commercial missions, which is focused on ordinary citizens.
Before starting, each of the passengers of the capsule called the bell - this is a tradition on the launches of Blue Origin.
