On Monday, images of pop sensation Katy Perry giving the ground a peck of affection upon her return from outer space made headlines worldwide.
The artist, along with five other women, rode an 11-minute trip on a Blue Origin spacecraft belonging to Amazon billionaire Jeff Bezos. The flight was a historic achievement as an all-female crew set foot in space aboard the New Shepard rocket.
HISTORIC JOURNEY Blue Origin's New Shepard spacecraft flew the six women above Earth's surface, including Pop star Katy Perry, at more than 100 kilometers above the internationally recognized Karman line — space's edge. The brief suborbital trip included the moment passengers could see and feel the breathtaking sight of the planet in space, with moments of weightlessness.
