"We had these incredible shots of Daisy watching you. She was so proud, she just kept saying, 'Mommy, Mommy,'" reporter Charissa Thompson told Perry, who teared up while holding a real, single daisy. "Why was it important to bring with you?"

"Daisies are common flowers, but they grow through any condition," Perry said. "They grow through cement, they grow through cracks, they grow through walls. They are resilient, they are powerful, they are strong. They are everywhere. Flowers are God's smile. But it's also a reminder of our beautiful Earth and the flowers here and God's smile and the beautiful magic that is everywhere, all around us, even in a simple daisy. So, to really appreciate it, remember it, and protect it."

While in space, Perry sang "What a Wonderful World" with her all-female crew in tow, and she took a moment to explain why the song came to mind.

"It's not about me," she said. "It's not about singing my songs, it's about a collective energy in there, it's about us, it's about making space for future women and taking up space and belonging, and it's about this wonderful world that we see right out there and appreciating it," Perry said. "This is all for the benefit of Earth."

"This experience is second to being a mom," Perry added. "That's why it was hard for me to go because that's all my love right there. And I have to surrender and trust that the universe is going to take care of me and protect me and also my family and my daughter, because I'm filled up from being able to get that gift of being a mom and to go to space is incredible, and I wanted to model courage and worthiness and fearlessness."
