WILLIAM SHATNER: Boldly Going Into Space

William Shatner is boldly going where Captain James T. Kirk has gone before.

TMZ reports the 90-year-old Star Trek icon will blast off into space aboard Jeff Bezos‘ next Blue Origin rocket ship — making him the oldest person ever in space. The flight will be similar to the first Blue Origin flight that Bezos took. It will be a 15-minute flight that will take Shatner and the rest of the crew to the edge of space where he’ll get to float around before returning to Earth.

TMZ says Shatner and his team are reportedly in talks with the Discovery Channel to film the mission for a documentary, but nothing has been confirmed.
