Special Welcome from Dr. Sian Proctor

​Dr. Sian Proctor made history during the SpaceX Inspiration4 Mission from September 16-18, 2021 as the first Black woman to serve as a spacecraft pilot. Inspiration4 was the first human spaceflight comprised of only private citizens to orbit Earth. The crew and trip raised more than $243 million to expand cancer research at St. Jude Children's Research Hospital.

Dr. Proctor is also a geoscientist, explorer, artist, analogue astronaut & science communicator, speaking at engagements globally. She is a professor of Geology, Sustainability and Planetary Science at South Mountain Community College and served as the education outreach officer for the first Hawai’i Space Exploration Analog and Simulation (HI-SEAS) Mission, a NASA funded analog mission for human spaceflight to Mars. Her artwork focuses on Space2Inspire Art to advance conversations about a JEDI (just, equitable, diverse and inclusive) space for humanity.
