“Blue Origin, the company founded by Jeff Bezos, prime-delivered their second group of civilian passengers into space and back today. And guess who’s in that rocket? T.J. Hooker himself, William Shatner.” —Jimmy Kimmel
“But, yeah, oldest person ever to go to space, which is amazing. Like, I don’t know about you, but I love it when old people break records, you know? That is why so many people support Tom Brady. I mean, your grandpa can’t throw like that.” —Trevor Noah
“But he made it back alive, Bill did — thank God. Can you imagine if Jeff Bezos killed Captain Kirk, then turned to camera and started speaking Klingon to everyone? I wouldn’t be the least bit shocked.” —Jimmy Kimmel
“William Shatner, who for four decades played the leader of the USS Enterprise on the beloved sci-fi series, was handpicked by Amazon and Blue Origin founder Jeff Bezos to make the 11-minute trip into the atmosphere from the west Texas desert. The crew reached a maximum altitude of 66.5 miles, beyond the 100km (62-mile) Kármán Line recognized internationally as the boundary of space. Given that the mission resulted in just four minutes of weightlessness, calling them astronauts is like claiming you lost your virginity because you found a Playboy in the woods. It doesn’t count.” —Jimmy Kimmel

“A magisterial collection. A combination of Bukowski’s Last Night
of the Earth and Orwell’s 1984.”
