William Shatner, who played Captain Kirk in the beloved Star Trek franchise, is reportedly set to boldly go where no 90-year-old has gone before, becoming one of fewer than 600 people to have reached the edge of space or beyond.

According to a report in TMZ, the Jewish Canadian actor will take a real trip to space next month on Jeff Bezos’s Blue Origin rocket ship.

The trip, similar to the company’s first manned flight in July, will see Shatner blasted into space for a 15-minute civilian flight, which will include several minutes of weightlessness to float around the capsule, the report said.

The flight and the run-up to it are being filmed for a documentary currently being shopped to a number of entertainment outlets, the report said.

Bezos himself was aboard Blue Origin’s first manned flight, which also included a hand-picked group: his brother, an 18-year-old from the Netherlands and an 82-year-old aviation pioneer from Texas — the youngest and oldest to ever fly in space.

Shatner’s flight would break that record by eight years.

Shatner first swaggered onto the bridge of the starship Enterprise in the 1966 original television series, which has spawned four spin-off series and 13 feature films, including the 2016 “Star Trek Beyond.”

Blue Origin — founded by Bezos in 2000 in Kent, Washington, near Amazon’s Seattle headquarters — hasn’t revealed its price for a ride to space, but some reports have said that tickets for the first flight cost up to $20 million.

Blue Origin is working on a massive rocket, New Glenn, to put payloads and people into orbit from Cape Canaveral, Florida. The company also wants to put astronauts back on the moon with its proposed lunar lander Blue Moon, in effect challenging SpaceX, which has been awarded NASA’s sole contract so far.

What a fucking kike

Did they really have to bring the late James Doohan into this with their sperg shit. Seems pretty petty if you ask me.

Poor bastard didn't get shot at in France so this shit could happen to his memory...

Man who blasted to space alongside Star Trek star dies in plane crash​

A man who travelled to space with Star Trek actor William Shatner last month was killed along with another person when the small plane they were in crashed in a wooded area of northern New Jersey, according to state police.

The one-time space tourist Glen M. de Vries, 49, of New York City, and Thomas P. Fischer, 54, of Hopatcong, N.J., were aboard the single-engine Cessna 172 that went down Thursday.

De Vries was an instrument-rated private pilot, and Fischer owned a flight school. Authorities have not said who was piloting the small plane.

The plane had left Essex County Airport in Caldwell, N.J., on the edge of the New York City area, and was headed to Sussex Airport in rural northwestern New Jersey, when the U.S. Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) alerted public safety agencies to look for the missing plane around 3 p.m. local time.

Emergency crews found the wreckage around 4 p.m., the FAA said.

De Vries, co-founder of a tech company, took a 10-minute flight to the edge of space Oct. 13 aboard space tourism company Blue Origin's New Shepard spacecraft with Shatner and two others.

"It's going to take me a while to be able to describe it. It was incredible," de Vries said as he got his "astronaut wings" pinned onto his blue flight suit by Blue Origin founder Jeff Bezos.

"We are devastated to hear of the sudden passing of Glen de Vries," Blue Origin tweeted Friday.

"He brought so much life and energy to the entire Blue Origin team and to his fellow crewmates. His passion for aviation, his charitable work, and his dedication to his craft will long be revered and admired."

De Vries founded Medidata Solutions, a software company specializing in clinical research, and was the vice chair of life sciences and health care at Dassault Systèmes, which acquired Medidata in 2019. De Vries also served on the board of Carnegie Mellon University.

He had taken part in an auction for a seat on Blue Origin's first space flight and bought a seat on the second trip.

Fischer owned the flight school Fischer Aviation and was its chief instructor, according to the company's website.

The U.S. National Transportation Safety Board is investigating the crash.
