Until now, the ladies had only been together as a group via video calls while preparing for their journey to the space on April 14.
“All these women are storytellers in themselves,” Gutste Lauren, 55, to the publication. “They go to space and can spread what they felt in different ways.”
The group shared their pride of the fact that this will be the first time that someone went to space with his hair and made -up done 'as noted by Interviewer Sylvia Obell.
Katy, 40, Pende: 'The space will finally be glamor. Let me tell you something. If I could record Glam with me, I would do that. We are going to place the “A **” in Astronaut. '
Former NASA assistant Aisha noted that she even took steps to check whether her appearance will remain intact while she noticed: 'I also wanted to test my hair and make sure it was good. So I skydived in Dubai with similar hair to make sure I would be good – see it for a dry run. '
Activist Amanda added: 'I think it is so important for people to see us like this. This dichotomy of engineer and scientist, and then beauty and fashion.

“We contain crowds. Women are crowds. I'm going to wear lipstick. '
In the meantime, Katy teased the fact that she could test her vocals at a new level when Lauren suggested that she should 'sing'.
Filmmaker Kerianne noted: 'You would be the first [music artist] In the space to sing, “to which Katy answered:” I feel that I should. '
Katy opened his first reactions to the space flight, joked: 'I had something like that, what am I going to wear? But seriously, I wanted to go to space for almost 20 years. I was investigating all possible commercial options.
'Even when Blue Origin first spoke about commercial travel to space, I had something like:' Sign up! I'm in line for the first time. “And then they called me, and I had something like:” Really true? I get an invitation? “
She continued: “And I really felt very sure when they sent me the photo of the Space Pod, because there is a spring on the front of the pod, and that is my mother's nickname for me.”
In the meantime, Gayle admitted that she had another reaction when she noticed: “I am probably the only one at the table who did not say:” Pet me in, coach. “
“I had a lot of fear – I still do that – but I also know that it is very interesting to be terrified and excited at the same time.”

TV -anchor Gayle King admitted that she had the most nerves about the coming flight
She explained: 'I have not felt anymore since the birth. Because I knew the birth would hurt. But it also leaves your comfort zone. '
Aisha admitted: 'I wanted to go to space, but I didn't think it was possible. I was afraid of doing it.
“I was afraid of even dreaming about it. And when I received the call, I realized that it was not “no” then – it was “not now” now and now it is time. '
In the meantime, Amanda noted: “It is a dream come true, and for me it was a dream postponed.”
She explained: 'I worked at NASA, I studied the stars – astrophysics at Harvard and MIT – but life stood in the way.
'Gender -based violence is a big reason why so many women in voice do not continue their training, and I was one of those women.
'After I was sexually abused, I exchanged my telescope to fight for my rights as a survivor of sexual violence.
“I drafted the survivors of the survivors of sexual attacks, spent it in the congress and at the United Nations.

“I can't wait to touch on earth and share what we bring back with the world.”
Blue Origin Flight NS-31 is the first crew that consists exclusively of women since the solo space flight of the Russian Astronaut Valentina Tereshkova in 1963.
It will also be one of the most diverse series of women who ever go to space in one go.
The entire journey is expected to take 11 minutes, and the women go up in a rocket that flies themselves, so that they can all enjoy the flight as passengers.
As soon as they reach space, they can float around the rocket for about four minutes before they come back to the earth.
