Blue Origin announced the crew members for its next human flight, NS-31 -- with an all-female crew. They are Aisha Bowe, Amanda Nguyen, Gayle King, Katy Perry, Kerianne Flynn, and Lauren Sanchez, who brought the mission together. The NS-31 mission will be the 31st overall for the New Shepard program and the 11th with humans aboard. SpaceX announced that the eight flight test of its Starship vehicle will take place no earlier than Monday, March 3, 2025. The word comes after the company tentatively scheduled it for Friday February 28, and said it may well change again. Chicago’s Midway International Airport (MDW) was seconds away from a major accident as a FlexJet business aircraft taxied onto a runway while a Southwest Airlines Boeing 737-800 was landing. The airliner was forced to go around. As controllers attempted to stop the jet, the airliner was forced to abort the landing. It executed a steep go-around, passed over the Challenger at 250 ft, and circled back to land.
