Summary created with AI assistance · Source: msnbc.com
- The Blue Origin flight featuring Katy Perry and other prominent women lasted 11 minutes and did not genuinely advance women's progress.
- While women in America face serious societal challenges, these wealthy women traveled to space, perceived as a marketing gimmick for space tourism.
- Although some crew members touted the flight as a significant achievement for women, critics view it as superficial marketplace politics.
- The environmental impact of such flights is often overlooked, with each passenger generating significant carbon emissions, questioning the seriousness of environmental protection.
To me it’s such a reminder about how we need to do better, be better.— Gayle King, reflecting on the view of Earth upon returning from the flight.
