Of course the mainstream media chose to highlight Katy Perry in particular as being on board the Blue Origin space trip, and now, as a result, two very important astronauts on that flight are being erased and ignored, or framed as superficial rich people with nothing better to do.
Amanda Nguyen:
A civil rights activist and founder of the nonprofit Rise, known for her work on sexual assault survivors’ rights. In 2013, during her senior year at college while studying astrophysics and working with NASA, she was raped at a frat party. She paused her mission to go to space in order to change legislation for sexual assault survivors. She was nominated for the Nobel Peace Prize and awarded TIME’s Woman of the Year for her advocacy and work in this area. Amanda is now the 1st Vietnamese woman to fly to space.
Aisha Bowe:
A former NASA rocket scientist, Aisha Bowe graduated from the University of Michigan with a degree in aerospace engineering and a master's in space systems engineering. Bowe is CEO of STEMBoard, an engineering company that works with governments and other organizations.
She also founded LINGO, a STEM (science, technology, engineering and math) education technology company. Bowe is a member of the National Society of Black Engineers and the American Institute of Aeronautics and Astronautics. Her work has been recognized with a NASA Engineering Honor Award, a STEM for Her Woman of the Year and a Black Enterprises Luminary Award.

Listen if I’ve gotta hear about that group of women that went into space for like 10 minutes.
At least let it Amanda Nguyen and Aisha Bowe that I’m hearing about.
The two people who actually have any right to be going to space out of these self important vapid celebrities.
Aisha Bowe is a former rocket scientist for NASA.
Amanda Nguyen was studying at NASA to become an astronaut but those dreams were put on hold because she was raped.
And she became an activist and has been a vocal fighter for the rights of victims.
If anyone in this world deserves to go to space it’s her.
Like if I gotta hear about it anyway then I’d rather hear about them.
And not billionaires that just discovered the world has borders and how connected to love they feel now.

Late af but as a queer, minority woman in STEM (☝️🤓) there’s absolutely nothing of value from Bezos’s Blue Origin trip with its all female “crew”. He used Aisha Bowe and Amanda Nguyen as tokens and social shields to try skirting criticism
But it is questionable why the two only qualified women involved would willingly be part of the project — seeing as they should’ve known just how bad privatizing space would be for the field and refused to be part of his marketing ploy

it wasn't just billionaires on the trip!!! It's such a disservice that people think the only people who went up there were rich women in entertainment.
There were real astronauts who trained for yesrs for this. One of which (Amanda Nguyen) missed an opportunity to go to space years ago, and this was her second chance to achieve her dreams.
I appreciate the distaste for Katy and Bezos' wife and those who didn't really earn their place on that trip. But there were people there who really deserved to have that opportunity, and they're being sadly erased from the narrative altogether. Lumping them in as "irrelivent billionaires" is so disrespectful, OP.
btw the katy perry/bezos' girlfriend/other four irrelevant billionaires 10 minute space stunt was not the first all female expedition no matter how much they try to market it as such. the first all female mission was in 1963 with soviet cosmonauts Valentina Tereshkova, Irina Solovyova and Valentina Ponomaryova - all three of which were working class and had to pass incredibly hard exams to be chosen from 400 potential candidates. just in case we started falling for the propaganda machine again
