 <\/p>\n

Earlier this week, Katy Perry randomly became the first chart-topping artist to launch into space as part of an all-female crew.<\/p>\n

Jeff Bezos<\/a>‘\u00a0Blue Origin<\/a>\u00a0space mission\u00a0launched its first female crew<\/a>\u00a0into suborbital\u00a0space<\/a>\u00a0earlier this week (14 April), as the six women rocketed up to over 60 miles above Earth.<\/p>\n

Perry<\/a>\u00a0was joined by\u00a0Bezos’ fianc\u00e9e and journalist Lauren S\u00e1nchez<\/a>,\u00a0NASA<\/a>\u00a0rocket scientist Aisha Bowe, researcher Amanda Nguyen, journalist Gayle King and film producer Kerianne Flynn.<\/p>\n

The ‘NS-31 mission’ – lasting 10 minutes and 21 seconds – came to an end when the New Shepard rocket crossed the K\u00e1rm\u00e1n line before safely returning to\u00a0Texas<\/a>.<\/p>\n

However,\u00a0conspiracy theorists<\/a>, who are often categorised as people who have too much time on their hands, think the whole thing was an elaborate hoax, and here’s why.<\/p>\n

\n

\"Perry's\"Perry's<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Perry’s hair wasn’t wild enough for some (Blue Origin)<\/cite><\/div>\n

Conspiracy theory #1 – Katy Perry’s hair<\/h2>\n

Over on\u00a0X<\/a>, some users have compared NASA astronaut Suni Williams’ wild hair in space to Perry’s.<\/p>\n

Whilst Williams was stuck on the International Space Station (ISS) for 286 days, the ‘I Kissed A Girl’ singer was up there for just over 10 minutes.<\/p>\n

“The real astronaut lady that Space X saved had her hair all raised. This is so fake,” one person wrote as Perry’s hair looked flawless throughout.<\/p>\n

“Watch their hair. Then look at Sumi’s [sic] while in space. This is all fake.” another added.<\/p>\n

As someone else complained: “Why Katy Perry and the other females not tie their hair before leaving? Why it seems like a fake stunt to me?”<\/p>\n

I think it’s pretty obvious why, but we move on.<\/p>\n

\n
\n
\"People\"People<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

People compared Perry’s hair to NASA astronaut, Sunita Williams (CNN)<\/cite><\/div>\n

Conspiracy theory #2 – ‘Fake hand’ spotted on Blue Origin<\/h2>\n

Again on X, where free speech is clearly encouraged, one user thought they\u00a0spotted ‘a fake hand’<\/a>\u00a0onboard the New Shepard capsule.<\/p>\n

Alongside a couple of screenshots, @MJTruthUltra wrote: “Something is definitely wrong with the Blue Origin ‘Space Flight’\u2026 that Katy Perry was on.<\/p>\n

“Social media<\/a>\u00a0users are asking, where are the re-entry burn marks? And why does that look like a fake hand?<\/p>\n

\n
\n
\"X\"X<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

X users were wrongly convinced (X)<\/cite><\/div>\n

“Lol this world is so crazy.”<\/p>\n

Although it seems the picture shown in the tweet was actually of a New Shepard Capsule test flight in 2017, not the mission Perry was on.<\/p>\n

As\u00a0reported<\/a>\u00a0by the Daily Mail, there was a mannequin on board that flight as it was a test mission.<\/p>\n

Conspiracy theory #3 – Blue Origin rocket vs SpaceX Falcon<\/h2>\n

Conspiracy theorists have also been wondering why Blue Origin\u2019s New Shepard capsule doesn’t appear to show the same scorched, burned appearance as SpaceX\u2019s Falcon capsules\u00a0after returning from space<\/a>.<\/p>\n

It looked way too clean, they said.<\/p>\n

So the key difference lies in flight profiles, as the New Shepard is a suborbital rocket, meaning it briefly crosses the edge of space and returns to Earth without reaching orbit.<\/p>\n

\n
\n
\"Jeff\"Jeff<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Jeff Bezos’ Blue Origin space mission launched its first female crew into suborbital space earlier this week (14 April) (Blue Origin)<\/cite><\/div>\n

This results in much lower re-entry speeds compared to orbital vehicles like SpaceX\u2019s Dragon or Falcon 9\u2019s boosters.<\/p>\n

The massive speed difference translates into much less atmospheric friction and heat so instead of a fiery descent, New Shepard’s capsule gently drifts back under parachutes.<\/p>\n

Conspiracy theory #4 – ‘Hollywood fake’ hatch opening<\/h2>\n
\n
<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

And then you’ve got\u00a0the hatch opening.<\/a><\/p>\n

Conspiracy theorists argued that the crew opened the hatch suspiciously smoothly, as some claim there should\u2019ve been more signs of re-entry stress, like smoke, or perhaps dramatic orchestral music.<\/p>\n

While others insist the lighting inside the capsule was ‘studio grade’.<\/p>\n

I mean, hopefully it wasn’t staged just so we don’t have to hear about\u00a0the ‘Flat Earth Theory’ again.<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
