Earth to the internet!
Online conspiracy theorists blasted off Wednesday over supposed “proof” that pop star Katy Perry and her all-female Blue Origin crew “faked” their mission to space earlier this week.
Using tin-hat logic, skeptics pointed to landing footage that shows the celebrity space travelers opening the capsule’s door — minutes before its owner, Amazon boss Jeff Bezos, proudly twisted it open with a wrench-like tool.
Social media users seized the moment as evidence that the mission was a hoax, insisting the rocket can only be opened from the outside due to “safety protocols” and a pressurized cabin.
“I’d say this is the nail in the coffin. FAKE!” wrote X user @ColtonBuckJ.
“Capsule’s hatch is designed to be opened from the outside by the recovery team after landing, as a safety measure to ensure controlled and secure egress,” he proclaimed in the viral X post.
Other out-of-this world conspiracies include that the rocket was “too clean” and unscathed to have soared to the cosmos and back.
“It was fake. The girls opened the door to begin with from the inside with no tools,” another commenter wrote on X.
“They then waited a few minutes, and Jeff Bezos stepped up with some sort of tool and acted like he unlocked the latch.”
“Doesn’t look like a pressurized hatch to me” another observer wrote — as another declared the mission was “faked by Overlord Bezos.”
But the footage may have simply been a publicity stunt gaffe in which honchos staged a second, more polished arrival scene without getting rid of proof that it was tightly choreographed.
In reality, the pop star and five other crew members aboard the New Shepard — including TV host Gayle King and Lauren Sanchez, the fiancée of Bezos— lifted off from West Texas on Monday at 9:31 a.m.
The event marked the first all-female spaceflight in more than 60 years.
The rocket sent the women just over the Karman Line, a line that marks the edge of space, and it fell back to earth 11 minutes after lift off.
Photos released Monday showed the crew floating in zero-gravity space with Sanchez smiling as her feet float into the air behind her.
The Aerospace company didn’t immediately return The Post’s request for comment on Wednesday.
