Gail King has started to protect his entire female space expedition, admitting that yes, it can be an expensive trip, but there is a real job.
“I think it’s good that we can really turn to him,” King told Extra as he asked him for the reverse reaction around the start of Blue Origin on April 14th.
Her thinking is changing, she said, after learning more about “what does the blue origin” and their intentions “come up with a way to harness the waste here and to come up with a way to put it in space to make planet Earth better.”
King added: “And we use space technology all the time, whether it’s your GPS, whether it’s your satellite. Every time the flight rises, they receive some kind of information.”
“Two of the astronauts-it is still difficult for me to call the astronaut-but two of the astronauts on board, one is a rocket scientist, one is an astrophysicist, actually they experimented,” King insists. “Every time one of them rises, you get some information that can be used for something else.”
King said he wanted “people to make more diligence” before criticizing.
“And then my question is,” Have you been to space? “Go into space or go to blue origin and see what they do and how they do and then come back and say,” This is a terrible thing. ” Is it expensive?

King is also offended by the expedition called “ride”, adding, “you never see a male astronaut who climbs into space, and they say,” Oh, he’s ride. ” In fact, we duplicated the route that Alan Shepard made. “
“Nobody said,” He’s ride, “she continued.” It’s always called a flight or a trip, so I feel that it’s a little disrespectful to what the mission and work that does blue origin is. “

“I had so many girls and women and some boys who say,” Wow, I saw what you did. I think maybe I should review, maybe I could do this too, “King said, admitting that while she could have any” haters “, she” will not let people steal my joy and steal the joy of what we did or what we have achieved that day. “

Olivia Moon is one of the stars who have criticized or mocking the flight, questioning the need for the odyssey and called it “glutton” at a time when “there are so many other things that are so important in the world right now.”
Mun said as he coincided Today with Jenna & Friends Earlier this month, “I know it’s disgusting, but it’s so much money to go into space. There are many people who can’t even afford eggs. Oh God, if they bring eggs into space!”
