re: All Female Blue Origin Crew Lifts Off in an Hour

They were told don’t touch anything. Just an expensive publicity stunt

Real women astronauts have already flown in space. Sally Ride did forty years ago. Other trained female scientists and astronauts have served on the ISS. The only thing this proves is that Bezos thinks this is idiot proof because these are not trained professionals.

Control: 'Control Tower to Blue Origin. Take off is now in 5 minutes.'
Sarah Knights: 'Blue Origin to Control Tower. We might be a few minutes late. I'm sending you a picture. Does this uniform make me look fat? Please respond, Control Tower.'

Looks like the crew of the United Federation of Planets new Scissors-class vessel.

The fact they'll be treated as heroes worthy of a ticker tape parade like Buzz Aldrin or Neil Armstrong with a celebratory visit on The View is nothing short of retarded.
