William Shatner is flying to the edge of space on Tuesday on Blue Origin's New Shepard, but employees say they wouldn't fly on it.
90 year old Shatner will be Blue Origin's first celebrity customer and the oldest person to reach the boundary of space. He's set to fly 62 miles above sea level on an 11 minute automated flight, without a pilot on board. However, in a recent open letter, some Blue Origin employees said they wouldn't ride its New Shepard rocket. New Shepard's emergency systems should protect passengers, but the letter raised safety concerns.
