William Shatner reveals why he won’t return to space: It would be like 'revisiting a love affair'
Fox News
William Shatner spoke of "deep grief" after becoming the oldest person to travel to space via Jeff Bezos' Blue Origin in 2021.
He compared going back on a galactic journey to "revisiting a love affair" and told Fox News Digital in an exclusive interview that he should probably "let it alone." "We're nothing. We are nothing, and that's what I saw. And what else I saw was the tragedy of the extinction of life." "I've never, you know, I've had things happen, but nothing debilitating over a period of time. So having the life force within me is probably mostly what it's all about." Tracy Wright is an entertainment writer for Fox News Digital. Send story tips to tracy.wright@fox.com.
