Katy Perry, Gayle King and Lauren Sánchez are headed to space aboard one of Jeff Bezosâ Blue Origin rocket ships.
The three will also be joined by Aisha Bowe, a former NASA rocket scientist; Amanda Nguyen, a civil rights activist; and Kerianne Flynn, a movie producer. The group will take off in the New Shepard spacecraft from the companyâs West Texas base this spring. An exact date has not yet been set.
The forthcoming mission will be Blue Originâs 11th mission and its first all-female crew.
Sánchez, Bezosâ fiancée, is said to have âbrought the mission together,â according to Blue Origin.
â[Sanchez] is honored to lead a team of explorers on a mission that will challenge their perspectives of Earth, empower them to share their own stories, and create lasting impact that will inspire generations to come,â the company said in a statement.
Since the New Shepard is a fully autonomous spacecraft, âevery person on board is a crew member â there are no pilots.â

During their 11-minute journey, they will fly past the KaÌrmaÌn line, which is an internationally recognized border between Earthâs atmosphere and outer space.
The news comes weeks after Blue Origin announced that it would be laying off 10 percent of its workforce.
âOur primary focus in 2025 and beyond is to scale our manufacturing output and launch cadence with speed, decisiveness, and efficiency for our customers. We grew and hired incredibly fast in the last few years, and with that growth came more bureaucracy and less focus than we needed,â CEO Dave Limp wrote in an email obtained by The Independent.
âIt also became clear that the makeup of our organization must change to ensure our roles are best aligned with executing these priorities. Sadly, this resulted in eliminating some positions in engineering, R&D, and program/project management and thinning out our layers of management.â

Try for freeBlue Origin has been trying to make gains in the industry dominated by its rival SpaceX, which recently landed a $40 million NASA contract as its CEO and founder Elon Musk, the head of President Donald Trumpâs Department of Government Efficiency, called for significant funding cuts to parts of the government.
Last month, Blue Origin launched its first successful flight since 2022, carrying six tourists. The brief suborbital trip ended a nearly two-year pause in crewed operations after a mission failure in 2022.
