SPACEX ASTRONAUT

Chris Sembroski flew in 2021 on the historic Inspiration4 mission. It was the first all-civilian space flight and is the subject of Netflix's documentary Inspiration4. Chris is an engineer for Blue Origin working on the New Glenn rocket and is a lecturer in aviation at Embry-Riddle University (his alma mater).

Inspiration4 flew to 364 miles, the highest altitude flown since the Hubble repair missions. During the 3-day flight the crew conducted science missions, earth observation and a number of vehicle tests as it was one of the earliest crewed flights of the Dragon.

Chris advocates for space wherever he can and enjoys science communication.
