The first pop star in space has landed, and her name is Katy Perry. The "Firework" superstar launched on a suborbital trip with five celebrity women on Blue Origin's New Shepard rocket on Monday (April 14), cementing her status as the first pop singer in space.

Aurora chasers and night sky enthusiasts get ready – the stars could align for you to have quite the cosmic show this weekend!We already told you that this month’s Full Pink ‘micromoon’ is scheduled to rise on Saturday (April 12), getting to its fullest point at 8:22 p.m. EDT (0022 GMT April 13).

NASA's next special delivery to the International Space Station has a launch date, but it's going to be one for early-birds. A SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket will launch an uncrewed Dragon cargo ship packed with tons of supplies on Monday, April 21, from the historic Pad 39A of NASA's Kennedy Space Center in Cape Canaveral, Florida. Liftoff is set for 4:15 a.m. EDT (0815 GMT), making it a predawn launch.
