Chille Bergstrom (pronounced like chilly - she/her) began studying aerospace engineering at age 8 through MIT and was named ‘Space Futurist’ at age 10 by MIT’s Media Lab. Sixteen year old Chille has worked with the International Space Station National Lab, the World Design Organization, UNHCR, NASA & Boeing. Having a unique outlook on life that includes a profoundly gifted education due to asynchronous brain development and a love of learning & inventing, Chille is an advocate for those with, as she describes them, "hyperabilities" that could be game changers in space.

In 2017, Olaoluwalotobi Thomas started researching how astronauts train to go to space, then took it upon himself to start the process. First, he learned how to scuba dive and got his scuba diving certification, then he started to meet people in space science circles who gave him more information on how to train. That led him to “more established astronaut training programs" leading to doing an analog astronaut program in Poland.

Mounir Alafrangy's research efforts investigate humankind's ambitious desire to explore the universe by examining human behavior and its change over time in the isolated, confined, and extreme (ICE) environment of space. This is feasible in part, through an AI system that autonomously monitors and categorizes a network of variables.
