MODEL Emily Ratajkowski has given a rocket to Katy Perry and her fellow Blue Origin astronauts over their 11-minute space flight.
The 33-year-old launched into one because the trip was organised by billionaire Amazon founder Jeff Bezos.

In a social media video rant, left, Emily said: “That space mission this morning.
“That’s end time s**t. This is beyond parody.
“Saying that you care about Mother Earth and it’s about Mother Earth and you’re going up in a spaceship that is built and paid for by a company that’s single handedly destroying the planet?
“Look at the state of the world and think about how many resources went into putting these women into space.
“For what? What was the marketing there?”
Her attack came the day after Firework singer Katy, 40, headed to space in an all-female crew with Bezos’s fiancée Lauren Sanchez, 55, and TV anchor Gayle King, 70.
Katy insisted she was doing it to inspire her daughter and other women — but mother-of-one Emily, also an actress, railed: “Having a man who has gained his power and become part of the one per cent purely through exploitation and greed, deciding to take his fiancée and a few other women to space for space tourism is not progress.”
She found an unlikely ally in TV’s Vicky Pattison, 37, who said: “I don’t think we need to see a bunch of uber-rich women fired into space in a schlong-shaped space ship for five minutes.”
But Gayle hit back: “Anybody criticising it doesn’t really understand what is happening here.”
