Nobody will be giving out any medals now that Blue Origin’s eleventh crewed space flight is in the books. The brief suborbital sojourn lifted off this morning, April 14, at 8:30 a.m. CDT and landed just 11 minutes later. There was certainly news coverage but not the kind of global audience that has attended other crewed space launches.

00:00Liftoff.
00:04New Shepard has cleared the tower.
00:07Oprah watching her best friend go to space.
00:17Hear that screaming inside the capsule?
00:20And all three parachutes reefing in the sporty perception.
00:24There it is.

00:50Katie!
00:54I feel super connected to love.
00:57So connected to love.
00:59This experience has shown me you never know how much love is inside of you, like how much love you have to give, and how loved you are until the day you launch.

01:51Well, it's so nasty and so vitriolic nowadays.
02:00And I mean, if everybody could experience that peace that we had up there and the kindness and what it takes to do what we did, all the people that it took to get us up there and get us back safely.
02:11I'll never, ever, ever forget.
02:12But the best part was when we got back in our seats after zero G's, Katie saying, what a wonderful world she did.
02:20She said, what a wonderful world.
02:23I see dreams.
02:24Oh, yes, yes, yes.
02:26Oh, there we go.
02:28Woo-hoo!
