You Tube is very important service.
Not space
I'm normally not a naysayer, but I have to say it is an insane waste of energy putting tourists into space for 11 minutes of enjoyment. Not saying it doesn't look fun – it does! But isn't it obvious that each of us in the developed world is already using more resources than the earth can provide? How many Joules of energy did it take to put this capsule into space without any benefit to humanity? This is the just the latest toy for the rich kids who are already using much more than their share. There are much cleaner ways to stimulate dopamine and our ancestors have been doing this for thousands of years without spewing toxic fumes and greenhouse gases into the air.
Sick and tired of the naysayers. Bill gave joy to millions as Kirk. As did Nimoy, Deforest Kelly, etc. The man deserves to boldly go. He earned it.
Why do so many behave like stupid, drunken teenagers anymore?
I'm surprised he didn't Shatner his pants on the way up.
21st Century Phallic Worship
Mission Accomplished: Shatner Pooped while Weightless!
Can we please get some knowledgeable people to commentate through this instead of the mindless morons here.
its a pitty the noise …. euphoria
Look up at Kirks head when he's with Jeff there's a craft that pullsup and fly's away
Can't think of anyone they could have sent up that would have made better PR. Congratulations Bill.
Reporters- There is a time to talk and a time to shut up. You need to shut up.
The landing looks like a bomb went off.. Not even minor whiplash?
The landing of the booster is just as miraculous 💪💪🦾
Congratulations to William Shatner, the picture of health, on his astounding trip to space.
What an arrogant Tosser that Bezos guy is!!! So disrespectful to William Shatner turning his back on him. Looks like spraying champagne was more important than listening to Shatner's experience :/
You go capt kirk. Keep it moving sir. Much luv bruh talk about a bucket list
This is a very very good move by Besos, my respect has increased 2 to 3 fold because of his choice of using William Shatner to pilot his space ship. We need experience today, and instead of discarding the elderly we can use their experience. William has been where no man has been before 1000 times, he knows space like the back of his hand. Piloting this space ship needs experience and I think William is the man for the job. Beos, awesome choice
Absolutely incredible â¤ï¸ÂÂ
Omg how unprofessional?! So Shatner at 90 years old is about to talk about his experience in space and there is women screaming and champagne showers.
And Shatner is stepping aside waiting to do his story.
Bezos you are a moron…how about a professional camera crew at the scene and a bus to escort the screaming women away from someone who actually has something to say to the world?
Jezus…
How much money did he pay to go up '
What a crock, as they "follow the script."
Yaay Captain Kirk is really in space. Feel like life has 1 less loose thread. No one I'd rather see go, no doubt. Congrats 🙂
So happy for you Willam Shatner!! Wish I could go.
How many « I » can you count?
then jeff disrepected shatner the end
I don't know to me it looks like it's all stage like it they really didn't happen
It doesn't matter how many times they practice the one that really count is the real one
This is a good move by Besos to bring in a man with more experience going into space than almost any other man. He has gone where no man has gone before. Its so important to have people of this calibre with real space experience especially with these new start up ventures etc and space is a hostile environment. Kirk we salute you
Shatner, You're trying to be too profound. Think before you speak.
