Breaking the Kármán ceiling
Description
Host Kriti J unpacks media’s messy reaction to Blue Origin’s all-female spaceflight. Why did a mission featuring trailblazers like Amanda Nguyen and Aisha Bowe get reduced to Katy Perry memes and "rich girl" shade? Kriti dives into the nuance, calls out the quiet patriarchy, and reclaims the narrative. It’s about more than celebrity—it’s about who gets to belong in the cosmos.
