"Welcome to a very small club," Bezos told the four new astronauts as he fastened pins on their suits.

"Oops, this one is bent," Bezos said as he tried to pin one on Shatner. "So am I," Shatner joked back.

Jeff Bezos, Blue Origin's founder, joined friends and family as they greeted the astronauts who exited the capsule one by one.

Bezos sprayed bottles of champagne to celebrate the safe and historic launch.

"Everybody in the world needs to do this," Shatner, who was overcome with emotion, told Bezos.

"It was so moving. This experience has been something unbelievable," he said. "The blue down there, the black up there."

"You have done something," Shatner said to Bezos. "What you have given me is the most profound experience. I am so filled with emotion."

He went on, "I hope that I can maintain what I feel now. I don't want to lose it. I am overwhelmed."

As for the camaraderie with the crew, the actor said, "It's like being in battle together."

The newest astronauts touched down safely at about 11 a.m. ET.

This was the second crewed flight for Blue Origin.

The capsule has separated from the booster. The astronauts have crossed the Karman line and are set to experience a few moments of microgravity.
