NS-19: Jeff Bezos has opened the hatch; "Welcome back, guys;" the crew has climbed out of the New Shepard to hugs, high fives and kisses from family and friends
https://twitter.com/cbs_spacenews/status/1469689268822056968NS-19: After Strahan enthusiastically described the flight to Bezos, the Amazon founder joked "You've gotta pay for the next one!"
NS-19: Describing the G forces during the flight, Strahan said "the Gs, it's not a face lift, it's a face drop! I know what I'm going to look like at 85"
NS-19: Laura Shepard Churchley to Strahan: "You were always there for me. ... This was just wonderful"
NS-19: Passenger Lane Bess, presumably joking (but maybe not): "I'm going to do it again. Get me in line!"

(...) Inside the spacecraft, occupants had time to admire the Earth before three drogue parachutes were deployed to slow and stabilize the capsule. These were followed by three main parachutes. Then, just before touchdown, a retro-thrust system expelled a cloud of air beneath the capsule.
After those inside the capsule landed back on Earth, they emerged to cheers and hugs, with people excitedly asking them about their experience. They were then presented with their astronaut wings.
Shepard Churchley has spent her life promoting what her father started when he became the first American in space and the fifth person to walk on the moon. She currently serves as chair of the Astronaut Scholarship Foundation Board of Trustees, a foundation that raises funds for college students and provides mentoring to scholars pursuing careers and research in STEM.
Strahan was born in Houston, spent most of his youth in Germany where his father was stationed in the U.S. Army and then returned to Houston for a portion of high school, where he played football at Westbury High School. He was recruited by Texas Southern University and then the NFL, where he played 15 seasons and became a Super Bowl champion. (...)

Today’s flight lasted ten minutes and saw New Shepard reach a peak altitude of 347,231 feet (equivalent to 65.76 miles or 105.83 kilometers), whilst the Crew Capsule attained 347,580 feet (equivalent to 65.82 miles or 105.94 kilometers) at the top of its suborbital “arc”, before returning safely back to Earth.
“We had a great flight today. This was our sixth flight in what has been a great year for the New Shepard program. We flew 14 astronauts to space, flew a NASA payload flight that tested lunar landing sensors and completed our certification test flights,” said Blue Origin CEO Bob Smith. (...)
With today’s flight, NS-19 marked the first time since STS-134—shuttle Endeavour’s swansong mission in May 2011—that as many as six people had been launched beyond the Kármán Line on a single spacecraft. (...)
Shortly afterwards, NS4 and the Crew Capsule parted company and the booster began its descent back to Earth, announcing its arrival with a trademark sonic boom, then touching down smoothly on its landing pad at seven minutes and 25 seconds.
Meanwhile, the Crew Capsule continued to coast upwards to an apogee of 347,580 feet (equivalent to 65.82 miles or 105.94 kilometers). Taylor, Dick, Shepard Churchley, Strahan and the Besses logged roughly three to four minutes of weightlessness before heading back home. (...)
With today’s flight, 2021 closes out a banner year for Blue, with a personal-best-beating six launches. In addition to five missions by NS4—three of which carried human passengers—her sister New Shepard vehicle, NS3, executed the uncrewed NS-17 flight in August, whose payload included postcards, lunar landing technology and artwork.
