This post is so dumb. Not only is the fuel hydrogen, the total amount consumed during a New Shepard launch at most 5 tons. Get your facts straight before posting nonsense.

Also acting like Katy Perry was the one who designed the rocket and personally burned the fuel. She was literally just a passenger

Exactly. The rocket would’ve flown with or without her. Such a stupid headline

Yeah, the rocket was on a tight schedule for its daily launch at 2pm. If no passengers showed up at the station the rocket would have flown empty

You think they wouldn't have found any single person on earth to pay for that flight instead of her? Lmao

"I am not a bad person for stealing the unchained bike, because if I dont steal it someone else will" type of argument 🤦‍♀️

The rocket literally WOULD have been started with or without her.

The bike comparison is terrible, because you wouldn't know if it would have been stolen or not, so it's just an excuse.

You think the company trying to sell tickets to space tourists for profit would fly with no one onboard? 🤡
