mary wallace funk, was a 21-year-old flight instructor working in oklahoma when she saw the life magazine 13 women, each accomplished pilots though allowed to fly fighter jets for the u.s. military tested off the charts on some of the same tests that nasa was putting the male astronauts through. she was able to endure 10.5 hours floating in a sensory deprivation tank. here's how she described it. >> what would i do in a tank of water that was so, and the humidity of the room that was so perfectly controlled to my temperature that i could not feel the water on my hands or my face because there was no hearing, smelling, all of your sights, all of your senses were taken away from you and you were to stay in there as long as possible and i broke the record of 10 hours and 35 minutes. >> but acing the tests was where the dream ended for wally funk and 12 other women. the next step would have been flight training. but that required sign off from nasa and the u.s. military. that sign-off never game. women would not be allowed to be women astronauts until the late 1970s. and in 1995, when astrona

mary wallace, nickname wally was a 21-year-old flight instructor working at fork still in oklahoma whenired to sign up to be an astronaut. ultimately, 13 women, each of them accomplished pilots, though not allowed to fly fighter jets for the u.s. military tested off the charts on some of the same tests that nasa was putting its mail astronauts through. wally fund said that she was able to endure more than ten and a half hours floating in a sensory deprivation tank, while the mercury seven, only had to do three hours sitting in a dark room. here's how she described it in an oral history project for nasa. >> what would i do in a tank of water, and the humidity of the room was so perfectly control to my temperature that i couldn't feel the water on my hands or on my face because there was no hearing, smell -- all your senses were taken away from you. and you were to stay in there for as long as possible and i broke the record of ten hours and 45 minutes. >> facing those tests was where the dream of becoming an astronaut ended for wally funk and other women. the next set would've been fligh

. >> reporter: speaking of practice, liz, that 82-year-old woman i mentioned, her name is mary wallacee the men did in the mercury program with 12 other women. they were good to go in space but, of course, back then nasa didn't want women in space. now jeff bezos is making her dream come true. listen. >> i was disappointed in 40 years of it, but now i'm going to go up with the best team ever. [laughter] and we're going to show the world what can be done in space and how we could act and think and how we want to bring things back to people. >> reporter: well, you know, liz, they used to say the sky's the limit. if you've got money, the sky is no longer the limit. the limit is space. and god knows where we go after that. we'll be with it live here tomorrow morning. liz: yeah. and a couple hundred grand. that's a limit too. jeff, we wish them the best, and thank goodness for dreamers like bezos and elon musk and branson and, you know, taking a shot here with the privatization of space with their own money. good to see it. >>> all right, as the delta variant's tent tentacles grow and expan

her full name is mary wallace funk. she's called wally funk. oliver damon, 18 years old, we were talking with rachel and kristen. they were -- he will be heading to college this fall. quite a lucky young man, and ja jeff bezos' brother mark, a volunteer firefighter, he is making this trip with his brother and best friend. that is what we have, kristen and rachel here as well. as you watch this, rachel, what do you think? >> i mean, i can't help but start to get a little excited here. when you cover launches, anderson, as you know, they usually don't take off on time. so you can't get really too excited until the astronauts are strapped in their seats and on board. this is obviously not an orbital mission so they don't have to do that as far in advance. we're seeing them in that holding bin up there. so shortly -- in just a few minutes we're going to see them cross the gantry and do the process ingress where they get into their seats. crew member 7, it's a role unique to blue origin. that's the 7th crew member because there are six crew members

the moon he would be providing assets for something further than that we got indications today, mary wallaceif you think about it, she is already, she is already on board for another, another mission, already volunteered herself for that. if you think of miss funk, 82 years young, she was part of the mercury 13 group of women who went through a lot of the same tests the men did in mercury 7 astronauts but that program was later shelved and not a one of those women got a chance to fly because that was not something women were thought to do or much of a market for them to do it. that was then. she gets her few minutes in space now. if she has her way, many opportunities going forward. you may ask why is a business network focused on these developments and taking them essentially wall-to-wall as they say in my business, because your own personal opinions on jeff bezos and his business dealings, starting out from scratch that is matter -- this is continuation of a trend that now lately has been put on steroids, if you include rich ard branson and elon musk. they have all invested tens of billion

marie horrnen. the spat dividing opec-plus. let's get more from bloomberg's middle east editor, paul wallace. think the first question is, why doesn't opec simply caved to the uae demand? if this is going to drag out and is such a huge price risk, plus they are kind of friends. why not just say ok? paul: traditionally, they have been very lockstep and the saudi say they cannot accept the uae's demands because of the uae's baseline for production is increased, than everyone else will have to renegotiate there is as well, and it is a grouping of 23 nations. what has surprised some people is how the uae has accepted this proposal and the uae is the only one saying hang on, we don't want an extension to this deal until the end of 2022, without renegotiation of the baseline. dani: paul, who has the most to lose if opec does adopt what the uae is asking? paul: to be honest, it is probably all of them all of them have a lot to lose if something goes wrong. few people are predicting something as extreme as an oil price war. we had goldman sachs on bloomberg tv earlier and they said that situation is
