The CBS presenter, Gayle King, responded to the reaction on the spatial flight of blue origin on Tuesday and suggested that the women’s crew was with a different standard than the men who have been in space.
The journalist and presenter of interview programs was part of a historical flight on Monday that also led to the fiancee of the founder of Blue Origin Jeff Bezos, Lauren Sánchez, the pop star Katy Perry, the film producer Kerianne Flynn, the scientist of the Nasa Aisha Bow rockets and civil rights.
The rocket landed safely after approximately a 10 -minute flight. The high profile trip caused some criticisms of those who questioned whether the flight of the letter was a use of resources.
King responded to the violent reaction in comments to Entertainment Tonight on Tuesday, where he compared the blue origin flight with the historical space flight tasks of the American astronaut Alan Shepard in 1961.

“Do you have a leg?” King scolded critics.
“Please, don’t call it ‘trip’,” he added, he says that people do not make this term when they talk about men who go to space.
“We double the same trajectory that Alan Shepard made in the past, more or less. No one called him a ‘trip,” King said. “It was called a flight, it was called a trip.”
“There was nothing frivolous in what we did,” he added.

“I am very disappointed and very sad about that,” CBS host continued. “And I also say this, what you are doing to inspire other women and girls, please don’t ignore it.”
He also addressed liberal critics who complained about the environmental impact, saying that the mission of Bezos with blue origin was to discover if the rocket could carry the waste of the earth to the space to “make our planet cleaner.”
“The space is not an O. It is somewhat and because you do something in space does not mean that you are removing anything to the earth,” King argued.

The model Emily Ratajkowski was one of several celebrities who criticized the flight on social networks, calling it “beyond parody.”
“You say that you care about Mother Earth, and it is Mother Earth, and you go up in a spacecraft that is built and paid by a company that is destroying the planet,” Rratajkowski published to Tiktok. “Look at the state of the world and think about many resources that are customary to put women in space. What? I am disgusted.”
King previously said to critics at a press conference on Monday that anyone who hits the flight “does not really understand” the historical importance of space flight.
“We can all talk to the answer we receive from young women, young girls about what these representatives,” he added.

“This is exciting for many people,” Tonight told Entertainment.
