STAR Trek legend William Shatner is to be launched into space in around 30 minutes time to become the world’s oldest astronaut.
The 90-year-old, who played Captain James T Kirk in the sci-fi series said: “I’ve heard about space for a long time now.
“I’m taking the opportunity to see it for myself. What a miracle.”The Blue Origin’s New Shepard rocket mission comes 12 weeks after Blue Origin’s first-ever crewed launch, which carried to space Jeff Bezos.
The launch has been delayed by wind for more than 24 hours but is currently scheduled to happen at 3pm UK time (10am EST).
