About Elsa Shiju
Like most kids, Elsa dreamed of going to space; unlike most kids, however, she has spent her entire childhood making it happen. A six-time Space Camp attendee witnessing 3 Space Shuttle launches, attending Space Camp 4 times, Space Academy, Robotics Academy, Cosmosphere Camp, National Flight Academy and VA Space Flight Academy, which made her an astronaut trainee. Now an Open Water Scuba Diver and middle school student, Elsa serves as a brand ambassador for future-minded companies and writes books and gives speeches encouraging the youth in her generation to join her in the future of space exploration.
About the course
For millions of years, humans and our ancestors have looked up at the night sky with wonder; for only the past 60 years, people have had the ability to visit and explore space firsthand. Join Elsa Shiju for an adventure through the history and future of human space travel. You’ll cheer at the small steps that became giant leaps, laugh at the lessons astronauts have had to learn the hard way (“it always comes back to the bathroom,” Elsa says), and revel in the fact that you are a member of the generation headed to Mars and beyond.
