William Shatner became famous by portraying Capt. James Kirk in the T.V. series Star Trek. On October 13, the 90-year-old actor became an astronaut himself.

Shatner was one of four passengers who traveled to the edge of space atop a Blue Origin rocket. NS-18 was the aerospace company’s second manned suborbital mission.
