FoS Karsen Kitchen

🚀 The ⁠⁠FUTURE of SPACE⁠⁠ (FoS) video podcast, hosted by ⁠⁠Daniel Fox⁠⁠, is a candid and informal conversation between Fox and leaders, investors, innovators, educators, celebrities, movers and shakers, who are shaping the future of humankind into outer space and here on Earth. Just like how two friends would chat and philosophize together, with one thing missing, a glass of wine! 🚀 Our Guest today is Karsen Kitchen. Karsen is a student at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill who recently made history by becoming the youngest woman to fly to space. She crossed the Kármán line, which marks the internationally recognized boundary of space, onboard Blue Origin’s New Shepard spaceship, during the NS-26 flight, on August 29, 2024. Kitchen recently founded Orbitelle to provide educational opportunities and help young women to “find their place in space.” The group encourages even women who are not pursuing STEM education, as the industry needs employees with various backgrounds.
