The sky is no limit—meet 21-year-old Karsen Kitchen, who made history!

Karsen Kitchen, who is 21 years old, is the youngest woman to have ever traveled to space. Jeff Bezos's Blue Origin spacecraft carried Kitchen, a senior at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, on a journey. Five other passengers, one of which was an aeronautical scientist sponsored by NASA, were traveling with her. On August 29, at 9:07 a.m. local time, the six-person crew took off on a suborbital flight from a location in West Texas and touched down about ten minutes later.(Source: Google Images)  Karsen's space flight fulfils her lifelong dream~ She is the youngest woman to have crossed the so-called limit of outer space, the Karman line. Karsen Kitchen, a communications major with a minor in astronomy, decided to follow in her father's footsteps as a space enthusiast and professor at UNC.Kitchen talked about the bizarre sensation she had upon landing. "It's this incredible fluorescent blue beating heart of the Earth," she remarked in an interview with WRAL News. She said that seeing Earth from a zero-gravity perspective "changed" her life.(Source: Google Images)  Kitchen revealed that she had been dreaming about seeing space for a long time. "I have a ton of memories from my childhood walking outside and staring up at the night sky. "Y'all, I want to be an astronaut," I would say when I first entered.  Kitchen is not the first woman in her family to reach this milestone, despite being the youngest woman to cross the Karman line. In 2022, Jim Kitchen, her father, was a passenger on the New Shepard 20 aircraft. When she returned to Earth after achieving this momentous milestone in space, he was there to greet her. They will always treasure the recollections of their trips outside Earth's atmosphere together.
