William Shatner set the record as the oldest person to go to space at the age of 90. Will this record be broken in 2024?
Counting this based on crossing the KΓ‘rmΓ‘n line (the widely recognized boundary between the atmosphere and space about 63 miles above the Earth).

"The approximately 10-minute suborbital flight put Dwight in the history books as the oldest person ever to reach space. He beat out Star Trek actor William Shatner for that honor by just a few months. [...] The rocket reached more than 347,000 feet, crossing the 330,000 foot high KΓ‘rmΓ‘n line"
