❝This post is inspirational for me. It took me great courage to write on my LinkedIn profile that I am an aspiring astronaut. That was my first step in acknowledging my dream publically so that I begin working towards it professionally. At that time, I expected that commercial spaceflight might be a chance for people who could not even apply for an astronaut position through their national space agencies. This post filled me with more motivation and hope.❞
