Actor William Shatner was overcome with emotion after his "unbelievable" 10-minute trip to space on Blue Origin's New Shepard.

"Everybody in the world needs to do this," Shatner told Blue Origin founder Jeff Bezos after he touched down in Texas Wednesday.

"To see the blue color rip by -- now you're staring into blackness," Shatner said, who, at the age of 90, is now the oldest person ever to go to space. "It was so moving. This experience has been something unbelievable."

"What you have given me is the most profound experience," the "Star Trek" star said to Bezos.
