Trisha Muro

She still remembers the simulators (the multi-axis trainer was her favorite!), the shuttle missions, and the IMAX movies that capped off each thrilling day.

I will be on station in the Firing Room supporting the launch countdown when we launch Artemis II.

As my grandfather worked for NASA at JPL on the Explorer Satellite, I have always had a passion for space. I first went to Space Camp in the 6th grade. I loved it! I won the “Right Stuff” award. I then went to Space Academy in the 8th grade. After college, I realized I wanted to combine my love of both the sciences and space, so I joined the US Air Force and went to the Uniformed Services University of the Health Sciences where I got my medical degree. I then became a flight surgeon for the 99th Reconnaissance Squadron at Beale AFB where I truly got to combine space and medicine when I had to don the pressure suit for a flight in the U-2. Today, I am an emergency medicine physician and always think fondly of my Space Camp days which started the journey of where I am today.
NASA Administrator Jared Isaacman notes that his journey started at Space Camp during an opening statement at his Senate Confirmation Hearing.
