Blue Origin’s NS-31 mission launched its first all-female crew into space on April 14, including pop star Katy Perry, who experienced weightlessness for the first time. The 11-minute suborbital flight crossed the Kármán line, traveling over 60 miles above Earth. The crew—Lauren Sanchez, Gayle King, Amanda Nguyen, Aisha Bowe, and Kerianne Flynn—joined Perry in floating freely in zero gravity aboard the New Shepard capsule. After touchdown, Perry kissed the ground and dedicated a daisy to her daughter. The crew described the journey as “profound,” marking a milestone for women in space and inspiring future generations.
