Pop star Katy Perry will join Jeff Bezos’ fiancée Lauren Sánchez and CBS host Gayle King on a flight to space on the New Shepard rocket this coming spring.
The mission, the 11th by Blue Origin, will take the four celebrities along with scientists and a former NASA rocket scientist to the edge of space.
Bowe, Nguyen and Flynn will be the mission’s honorary guests, with the flight intended to raise funds for non-profit organisations that help paediatric and women’s health, and the Earth Fund.
Sánchez first revealed plans for an all-female Blue Origin mission in 2023, but did not announce specific plans for the flight at the time.
Blue Origin’s New Shepard rocket has taken 52 people to space since 2021, including William Shatner and Bezos himself.
