Blue Origin’s all-women crew is under fire from conspiracy theorists with some pointing out the one particular detail they believe is ‘proof’ the mission was ‘fake’.
On Monday (April 14), Blue Origin’s rocket ship mission successfully took off from Launch Site One in West Texas at 10am EDT.
Onboard was the likes of Katy Perry and author and journalist Lauren Sánchez – who’s also engaged to Blue Origin founder Jeff Bezos.
The flight marks the first all-women crew to have launched into space since 1963 when Valentina Tereshkova was sent into orbit by herself by the Soviet Union.
Alas, despite footage from the event being shared online, the all-women crew were actually in space. Also going around is a clip of Perry screaming upon landing back on Earth and Bezos face-planting dirt – some social media users aren’t convinced.
Like anytime anything to do with space happens, various conspiracy theorists have come crawling out the woodwork onto Twitter to brand the mission ‘fake,’ many agreeing there’s one detail that proves it.

Multiple conspiracy theorists have pinpointed the moment when the spacecraft landed – or should I say ‘landed’ – back down on Earth as revealing the mission was ‘fake’.
