I'm not a SciFi guy but this is pretty cool . . . and @90yrs old! Have a great trip Bill.

Blue Origin will launch William Shatner into space today! Here's how to watch it live.

Liftoff is scheduled for 10 a.m. EDT (1400 GMT).

Actors wannabe singers/rock stars. And vice versa. It has always been so.

Interesting factoid:
William Shatner holds at least one world record - he sold a kidney stone for $25,000

Maybe the buyer thought it was a meteor…

Looks like the launch is holding at t minus 15.00 minutes.

Back to counting down...

He's taking a dick ride. Look at the design of that thing.

Just do not call him and those like him astronauts. Calling them astronauts is like calling passengers on airliners "Aircrew".

I would like to ride in the dick............

Is that the "Lazy d" branding iron?

Dangit, I missed it all, it's tough being a working schlep.

You did. About 9 months before you were born!

It was probably a short ride too…spray and pray.

If anybody deserves to be the oldest dude in space its William Shatner.
I just like Capt. Kirk, always will.

They're referred to as "cashtronauts!"

Last time I saw a pic of him, they need a few more tons of fuel to get him there and probably needs his soft recliner. As Capt Kirk, tough to admit you NEVER been to space ever.

He looks pretty damn good for 90....

Capt. Kirk was brought to tears by his ride to space and back. I'm so happy that he got to do this.
Yes it's a PR stunt, and yes it worked
