00:00Katy Perry and Gayle King have signed up for an all-woman mission for the next Blue Origin spaceflight this spring.

00:11Such a diverse group of women going up to space, which is pretty incredible.

00:17What would your best advice be to them and how to prepare themselves to go to space?

00:24Well, I am so glad that they are going and that, you know, people who have some fame down here on Earth when they come to the space world,

00:31other people look and look into the space world that might not have.

00:36And I would tell Katy and Gayle and Amanda and Aisha, all the whole crew.

00:45It happens even if you spend a bunch of months up there.

00:48It happens very quickly and make sure that you just sort of close your eyes and capture some moments that are just for you.

00:55Or keep your eyes wide open, looking at that view out the window and capture what it really feels like to be a person doing that.

01:02Because I think it's just it's sort of unbelievable that it's hard when you come home to remember you really got to do this amazing experience.

01:09And I know they're all so excited and actually intent on sharing that experience when they get home.
