So, Katy Perry went into space and successfully returned as part of an all-female crew.

Am I the only one wondering if there was any cherry ChapStick® onboard?

I never realised that she was so keen on pushing the boundaries of scientific research and technological innovation.

Hope she publishes the results of her science experiments she carried out.

Maybe she going to be part of Elon’s crew going to Mars. We can hope…

I think the whole point of the exercise is that Elon’s Space X has moved very far ahead of Bezos’ rocket company and they were desperate to make the news. ‘Oh, look at us, we sent an automated rocket that doesn’t need driving up to the closest edge of space and we only put women in there. One of them was a pop singer! Woo hoo!’

It was sarcastic comment as it was clearly just nothing more than a publicity stunt.

Yeah thanks,

Also, I wasn’t ‘mansplaining’ to him that it was a sad publicity stunt, more saying WHY they were doing a sad publicity stunt. If you look into it Bezos’ rocket company is in a bit of trouble. They’re burning cash at an alarming rate but they’re falling far behind rivals Space X in achievement. Space X has also won the lions share of the money from NASA for contracts over the next decade.

On an entirely separate note, most of these idiot celebrities and media types spend all of their time telling us we now can’t drive anywhere or have the lights on in the evening because of global warming. Then there’s all the whining about politicians and royals using private jets to go to actual useful meetings and events. Nowhere in the reporting of the all female pointless joyride to the lower edge of space did I see anyone question the environmental consequences of burning that huge amount of fuel for no useful purpose. - Double standards, just a bit.

Pointless publicity stunt with no scientific value. In fact the damage that the trip probably did to the environment, and the huge cost that could have been spent on something worthwhile make it particularly tone deaf. The fact that it's all been wrapped in the blanket of feminism is particularly insulting.

You might want to fact check that one. There are millions dying from starvation and associated diseases. 9 million per year appears to be the reported figure.

Unless your comment was humour driven and you are pointing out that the money spent on reducing global warming reduction, could be used to feed people? That's an interesting debate. Plenty of numbers to crunch on that one.

K Perry said she hopes she's inspired young women to become astronauts. She literally went into space for ten minutes in a designer jump suit, hair done and a face full of make up. I feel she may have given a false impression of what being an astronaut entails . I think Suni Williams gave a better idea of what's involved.

100% this along with her hair swish and kissing the ground.....Because Astronauts in the true sense do all of that!!

Stupid and unnecessary use of the resources needed. I wonder how these rich Women will offset the carbon footprint for their "Beautiful Earth"

Are you suggesting that there's a link between wealth and privilege?

What an odd concept, yet it would explain a lot of things that seemed to make no sense.

Elon Musk has publicly criticized Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) programs, stating they are "just another word for racism" and should be dismantled. He argues that DEI initiatives replace discrimination with different forms of discrimination and that individuals should be judged based on merit and integrity.

Unless it's a pointless, dangerous and expensive publicity stunt. Obviously 💜

Blue origin is owned by Amazon/Jeff Bezos.

But yes, Musk is being a dickhead and is confusing the public about positive action and positive discrimination, to stiff up political drama.
