William Shatner Set To Fly On Blue Origin's Second Crewed Launch

William Shatner is preparing to become the oldest person in space aboard the second human flight for Jeff Bezos’ Blue Origin.

Captain Kirk himself is preparing to become the oldest person in space aboard the second human flight for Jeff Bezos’ Blue Origin. 

William Shatner’s age record – at 90 years young - will beat out a record Blue Origin just set in sending 82-year-old Wally Funk up this summer. 

Audrey Powers – the woman in charge of flight operations at Blue Origin – also on board. So are a medical researcher and scientist.
