Jeff Bezos recently sent a number of very rich women on the edge of space, in a clumsy media show that probably has Neil Armstrong who turns into his grave. The fully female blue space flight has inspired many strong internet emotions, many of which were directed to its most eminent crew, Katy Perry.
Indeed, since the space flight approached, the Internet has been on fire with a animated debate on the question of whether the Pop singer can be characterized as a real astronaut or not. The debate has reached absurd proportions, which even has an impact on Wikipedia publishers, which burst into a discussion last week to classify the singer as a “astronaut” or not. Unsurprisingly, all the publishers decided that the answer was “no”.
“I am inclined to say No When a brief trip to space is not very final for his career, “said an editor called Snuggums.” If there are others with whom she is starting in the future, we could reassess the question. “”
Another publisher, Ravensfire, said: “It is a space tourist, it is not something that should be in the lead or listed as a profession.”
“The common understanding of a astronaut / cosmonaut includes years of training and generally a type of mission,” said RCSCOTT91. “From the official point of view of NASA, which has defined the term more closely, Katy Perry would still not be eligible.”
For any reason, the new American transport secretary, Sean Duffy, also decided to make scenarios last week. Duffy went to X on Thursday to make a compliment very backwards at the recent space flight and let participants know that they were very definitively not Astronauts. “The crew that flew to space this week on an automated flight by Blue Origin was courageous and glamorous,” wrote Duffy, “but you cannot identify yourself as an astronaut. They do not meet the criteria of the faa astronaut.”
We do not know why Duffy estimated that it was necessary for Dunk on the space festival funded by Bezos. Perhaps Duffy, who was busy cutting funding (or threatening to reduce funding) in infrastructure and transport projects in blue states, wanted an excuse to feel like a real government official.
Perry also managed to fight with Wendy’s (you know, fast food), after the chain tweeted about the return of the singer of the space, asking: “Can we send it back?” A source close to Perry then told the media that the singer had apologies from the restaurant: “Wendy’s did not make a joke – they made a choice. Their recent articles on X intended for Katy Perry were not only disrespectful but flagrant inappropriate. ” The source continued: “It was not harmless jokes, it was a billion dollars using its platform to publicly lower a woman.” Wendy then refused to apologize.
God does not know that why everyone has chosen Dogpile on Perry when there were half a dozen other women on the flight, although it may have something to do with the singer’s decision to use the excursion as an opportunity to promote his next world tour. In space, Perry made a video in which she unveiled a piece of paper with the setlist of the tour on it. A source close to Perry has since declared to the media that she regretted “making a public show” of her trip to space.
It should be noted that there have been many real Women’s astronauts over the years, whether or not you may call a recent 10 -minute excursion from Bezos a real “fully female” spatial mission.
In an even more stupid turn of events, the online root also decided that, like the original moon mission – the Blue Origin flight had to be rigged. A large part of the conspiratorial reflections focused on a video taken after the space pod landed on earth. The commentators said they thought that the carrycot door had been opened from the inside, then quickly closed before Bezos opened it with a key. Internet “experts” say it should have been impossible, but that means if they are right or if it even happened.
The challenges of Apollo flights were certainly high (we were trying to prove that we were better than Russia so that we could continue to claim the resources of the Third World), it is therefore logical that the American government simulated them (I do not say that they did it, I simply say that justification was there). What are the challenges of sending a pop singer in space, I am not sure, apart from the continuous relevance of the wacky spatial tourism company of a billionaire. Which is, you know, not really so relevant for most people.
