Stefanie Tanaka:
If you happen to possess a hefty sum of 0,000, you too can experience the thrill of traveling to space! It’s quite an intriguing proposition, isn’t it?
Tetris Kelly:
Alright, Billboard team, five extraordinary women ventured into space, yet the spotlight seems to be solely on Katy Perry, drawing mixed reactions. Why is that? What’s the underlying sentiment here?
Jerah Milligan:
To be honest, I don’t have strong feelings about it.
Stefanie Tanaka:
I can see why some individuals might feel upset about this. While I don’t share the same intensity of feelings, it’s understandable considering the current climate.
Tetris Kelly:
What’s the core issue here? Why are people expressing discontent?
Stefanie Tanaka:
Well, many people are facing difficult times. It’s not particularly uplifting to witness the ultra-wealthy indulging in space travel while many struggle to make ends meet.
Ciara Zimring:
What they perceive as inspiring, sending a group of women to space, actually comes across as a showcase of wealth—sending affluent individuals rather than skilled female astronauts who truly deserve the opportunity to go up.
Stefanie Tanaka:
Exactly, I completely agree with that perspective.
Ciara Zimring:
That would indeed resonate much more deeply.
Stefanie Tanaka:
While it’s visually appealing to witness a group of women, especially women of color, embarking on a journey to space, the reality remains that this endeavor was funded by Jeff Bezos. Without his financial backing, this opportunity wouldn’t exist. If this were Elon Musk, public reaction would likely mirror the current sentiments. These billionaires seem obsessed with leaving Earth while it faces significant challenges.
Tetris Kelly:
It appears Stefanie is quite frustrated about this situation.
Stefanie Tanaka:
Their plans seem to involve escaping to space at the first sign of our planet’s decline due to climate change and other pressing issues.
Tetris Kelly:
What’s amusing to me is the juxtaposition of this so-called inspirational moment. Throughout the entire experience, it appeared that Gayle King was quite apprehensive. She seemed uncertain about her presence there, often questioning, “Why am I here? How did I end up on this spacecraft?”
