Who is Jon Spooner?
It was day #1 of the [International Space Apps Challenge][] when I met [Jon Spooner][], the director of Human Space Flight Operations at the [Unlimited Space Agency][]. His goal: hack his way into space. I interviewed [Jon Spooner][] about his plans as well as Todd Khozein from the operations team at [SecondMuse][], about his impressions on the mission.
In preparation for his flight, Jon interviewed [Dr. Alex Kumar][] (research medical doctor) from the European Space Agency, [Don Thomas][] from NASA, [Tim Peake][] (Astronaut) from European Space Agency, [Loredana Bessone][] (Astronaut instructor) from the European Space Agency, [Dr. Andy Newsam][] (Astrophysicist) from Liverpool John Moores University, and [Dr. Gail Iles][] (a condensed matter physicist and astronaut instructor) at the European Space Agency.
