Blue Origin's all-female crew launches into space

Pop icon Katy Perry, journalist Gayle King and Jeff Bezos' fiancée Lauren Sanchez will head to space Monday morning as part of an all-female space crew.

The crew will take off on Blue Origin's New Shepard rocket for a 10-minute spaceflight from West Texas. It will be Blue Origin's 11th human flight.

Where is the Blue Origin launch site?
Blue Origin has flown tourists on short hops to space since 2021, after Bezos climbed aboard with his brother for the inaugural trip; the upcoming trip will be the company's 11th human spaceflight. Some passengers have received free rides, while others have paid a hefty sum to experience weightlessness. The company declined to comment on who is footing the bill for Monday's flight.
