Was the all-female Blue Origin trip to space faked? Did Katy Perry, Gayle King, and the other celebrities pull off a fantastic ruse? That’s what some people think.
Conspiracy theorists are pointing to something that happened with Blue Origin’s New Shepard space capsule after it returned to Earth as key evidence that something fishy was happening. In fact, some of them are going so far as to call it “definitive proof” that the women faked their 11-minute trip to space.
After touching down, video appears to show someone opening the capsule door from the inside. Then it quickly shuts, only for the hatch to be re-opened later by Blue Origin founder Jeff Bezos using some sort of specialized tool, letting his girlfriend Lauren Sanchez and the other women out of the space capsule.

“I’d say this is the nail in the coffin. FAKE!” someone who watched the video exclaimed on X (Twitter). “The Blue Origin New Shepard crew capsule’s hatch is designed to be opened from the outside by the recovery team after landing, as a safety measure to ensure controlled and secure egress. Space capsules, including New Shepard’s, are generally not designed to open from the inside immediately after landing due to safety protocols, such as ensuring the external environment is secure and the capsule is stable.”
“If you still believed space travel was real — Space Origin just cured that,” another person wrote. “Thanks for the bad CGI, celebrity astronauts and PR stunt so absurd it makes the moon landing look like cinema. They’re not even trying anymore.”
Others claimed that the door opening inwards, unusual for a pressurized cabin, was evidence of chicanery.
Then there are people like this…
“What you just saw wasn’t a space mission. It was a symbolic ritual,” another hardcore skeptic wrote. “In modern occultism, everything is inverted. The ‘space launch’ is coded theater: A phallic rocket rising, a capsule shaped like an egg or womb… then a ‘rebirth.’ These rituals celebrate the arrival of a new human — synthetic, digital, androgynous, disconnected from nature. It’s not science — it’s modern alchemy, dressed in CGI and fake inspirational speeches.
“Space becomes a symbol: A metaphor for escaping reality, ascending into a virtual world ruled by AI. This isn’t about space exploration. It’s mass mind programming.”
And this…
“From Pleiadians and other sources we already know Jeff Bezos is a satanist involved in cloning. So is Katy Perry, Gayle King and probably most, if not all, of these women. That’s probably why they were chosen,” someone else claimed. “The name ‘Blue Origin’ and the suits are way too close to Galactic Federation for me. The badge turned upside down is the inverted Taurus-Pleiades bull used by satanists. Considering all of this symbolism, there could have been a dark ritual connected to the launch. Remember, real satanists aren’t the ones who dress like goths and talk about satan. They blend in and are greatly admired.”
And those are just the tip of the conspiracy theories iceberg. There are so many more. It’s quite entertaining.
