What does the International Space Agency do? They don’t seem to be listed on wikipedia, and I just see things calling the woman on the left an “analog astronaut” with her in a spacesuit on earth
Yes, wtf is an analog astronaut. I used to play a lot of Kerbal Space Program, am I a digital astronaut?
All I can find about her is interviews with her, no secondary sources. In one she says she is the founder of International Space Agency.
Sounds like a media hack to spice up her resume.
Analogue missions are missions that simulate some aspect of the off-planet living conditions here.
I talked for a while with these guys (who are students, but still seem pretty serious), they had a stand at a convention I visited, they use a tunnel in the alps to simulate a habitation module:
Analogue missions seem like a legitimate contribution to the success of real missions to me, you gotta test both psychological effects and the functionality of prototype devices somehow.

I don’t see anything in the image or FB post that mentions an International Space Agency?
search her name, then you get the stuff I’ve been seeing. I don’t go on facebook for obvious reasons.

It says it right there, they do simulations and fun little LARPs on Earth to figure shit out.
I found that later, forgot to add some “edit:”.
But she tries to present herself as someone on the levels of Einstein, but she is just a university student who got some internship in a nasa project.
