Hey space fans! 🚀 Did you hear the exciting news? Pop star Katy Perry, famous for hits like “Firework” and “California Gurls,” just went to space! 🌌
On Monday morning, Katy joined an amazing group of women aboard a Blue Origin rocket called New Shepard. They soared over 100 kilometers above Earth—that’s higher than airplanes fly! ✈️✨
The crew included five other incredible women: Lauren Sanchez (who’s a helicopter pilot), TV host Gayle King, film producer Kerianne Flynn, former NASA engineer Aisha Bowe, and scientist Amanda Nguyen. Together, they blasted off from Texas and spent about ten minutes in space. 🌎💫
The rocket zoomed straight up before the crew capsule detached and floated back down, safely landing with the help of parachutes. 🎈 It was the first all-woman space crew since 1963! How cool is that? 😲
This mission was organized by Blue Origin, a company that offers space trips to people who dream of seeing Earth from above. So far, they’ve flown 58 passengers into space! Would you like to go someday? 🚀🌠
Everyone on the ground cheered as the crew returned safely. Katy Perry and her fellow astronauts showed us that with big dreams and teamwork, the sky isn’t the limit—space is! 🌟
Stay curious, and keep reaching for the stars! ✨
