“I want to do that so badly. I would literally cry for probably a good couple of hours. Being up there and looking at the earth,” DeChambeau said in a YouTube video uploaded on Emma Markin X Kai channel. The SpaceX event took place last week in Brownsville, Texas. It aimed at focusing on testing heat shields and rocket configurations for future missions. DeChambeau watched alongside VIPs as the Starship launched successfully but splashed down in the Indian Ocean. ADVERTISEMENT Bryson DeChambeau’s comments show his enthusiasm to go to space and watch Earth from there. His space enthusiasm likely started last year, when he was attending his first SpaceX launch with a similar crew. He was joined by Donald Trump and Kai Trump back then as well. Later, Bryson DeChambeau shared an Instagram reel about his experience of the launch and wrote, “I’ve never been so inspired #spacex.” Now that he has developed a liking for space, he wants to go to Mars on a launch and view Earth from space. His wish is identical to that of Katy Perry, who actually did go to space.

She knelt to kiss the ground while holding a daisy named after her daughter. And the way she described her experience would make anyone want to go to space and view Earth from there. She said that she was feeling “super connected to love.” She also emphasized how the experience revealed inner capacity for love and the need to surrender to the universe. ADVERTISEMENT This is not the first time, though, that a golfer has expressed interest in going to space. Space and golf have a long history. Astronaut Alan Shepard was a passionate golfer. He even hit two golf balls on the Moon during NASA’s Apollo 14 mission in 1971 using a smuggled modified 6-iron. Because of the low gravity, the balls traveled far and marked the first extraterrestrial golf. ADVERTISEMENT
