All systems are were a ‘go’ for this morning’s launch of a Blue Origin
spaceship carrying “Star Trek” actor William Shatner into the
final frontier.
The ‘New Shepard’ rocket, named after astronaut Alan Shephard, travelled 106-kilometres above
Earth, then returned to the Texas desert about 10-minutes later.
The flight by T-V’s original Captain Kirk has captured the
imagination of a lot of people, including fellow Canadian spaceman
Chris Hadfield, who sent Shatner a message telling him to “Go
Boldly.”
