Ed Dwight, 90, America’s first black astronaut candidate, finally goes to space 60 years later

Ed Dwight, the first black astronaut candidate in America, achieved his dream of space travel at age 90, flying with Jeff Bezos' Blue Origin. Six decades after being overlooked by NASA despite President Kennedy's support, Dwight experienced weightlessness during a 10-minute flight, describing it as "a life changing experience." He now holds the record as the oldest person to travel to space, surpassing William Shatner.
