Recently The Inspired 24 held our 5th Spaceflight Training class. It was the first since taking over operations from CHaSE, and we are very happy to say it went fantastically. 🚀 Per tradition, the crew of Roger “Roger” Lascorz, Kendra “Lady Base” Base, Christopher “IFO” Coger-Alexander & John “JMED” Michael Espinosa Duran designed their own crew patch… The Inspired 24 Class V Spaceflight Training patch represents the people, identities, and aspirations that came together during training. Its overall design was intentionally inspired by the Artemis II mission patch, recognizing that their spaceflight training took place in the same year as the historic Artemis II mission. The helmet and rainbow motif incorporate The Inspired 24 patch, tying the individual elements back to the program itself. The four blue stars represent the four Class V trainees, while the four red stars honor the four instructors and the prominent gold star represents our shared direction toward spaceflight. The Vantage IF0-1 flight suit, though belongs to one crew member; the suit represents a scientific breakthrough of wearable technology for monitoring human physiology in extreme and spaceflight environments. The flower honors the city of Reus, home of one crew member; the Colombian flag represents another member’s pride in his Colombian heritage while pursuing his goal of becoming an astronaut; and the harp represents another member’s personal goal of becoming the first harpist in space. Together, the patch preserves not only our training experience, but the different cultures, ambitions, technologies, and people that made The Inspired 24 Class V their own. 👩‍🚀👨‍🚀🧑‍🚀 Check out video from the first 4 classes…youtu.be/HhGOTlxgOB8 If you are interested in learning more about The Inspired 24’s Spaceflight Training Program please go to theinspired24.com/spacefligh…. @SacredSpaceZen @EngiBob @aparrisx #Spaceflight #Inspired2Space4All

The Inspired 24 Spaceflight Readiness Program October 7, 2026 The Honorable Jared Isaacman Administrator National Aeronautics and Space Administration 300 E Street SW Washington, DC 20546 Dear Administrator Isaacman, As World Space Week 2026 kicks off, The Inspired 24 would like to express our enthusiastic support of your vision for NASA, including the establishment of a lasting human presence on the Moon and the journey that will carry humans to Mars. Your leadership has reminded many of us that human spaceflight is not only the work of a few, but a shared endeavor that can inspire people from every walk of life. We are grateful for the direction you are setting and eager to do our part. With over 360 worldwide members to date, The Inspired 24 is dedicated to building a space-ready civilian workforce for the future of human spaceflight. We believe that as lunar and deep-space operations grow, the need for capable, well-prepared people will grow with them, including skilled professionals from the trades and other fields who can bring practical expertise to a mission. Our civilian space-readiness program is designed to help prepare them. The program includes: - A two-day hands-on spaceflight training course covering spacesuit operations and emergency water landing preparedness, as well as online coursework with testing. (youtu.be/HhGOTlxgOB8) - IIAS Project PoSSUM @PoSSUMAstronaut as the next step after completing the I24 spaceflight training weekend, providing advanced experiences for astronaut training. - Team missions at @SpaceCampUSA, where members train and work together in a mission environment. - Analog research missions through the Analog Astronaut Community (analog-astronaut-community.m…), which give members hands-on experience with scientific research and simulated space operations. - Aquanaut missions through Jules’ Undersea Laboratory @JulesLodge, where members live and work in an extreme, isolated and pressurized environment much like what they would experience in space. Together, these experiences help our members build the technical skills, teamwork, and resilience that spaceflight requires. And this is just the beginning. We are hopeful that, as the lunar base takes shape and commercial space companies expand their operations, there will be opportunities for civilians with proven training and practical expertise to contribute directly. The Inspired 24 would be proud to see its members actively participate in support of your missions and those of our commercial partners, and we are committed to preparing them well for the responsibility of future civilian spaceflight. We would welcome the chance to share more about our program, and we would be honored to hear any guidance you or your team might offer on how civilian readiness can best support the future of human spaceflight. Thank you for your service and for your inspiring leadership. We are cheering you on as you take humanity farther than ever before. With respect and appreciation, Andrew “Titan” Parris @aparrisx President & Senior Spaceflight Trainer Olivier "Chef" Barbeyrac @savor_gourmet Vice President Rosana "Zen” Sotile @SacredSpaceZen Director of Media & Lead for Space Camp Missions Robert “Scout” Barnum @EngiBob Director of Spaceflight Readiness Program & Senior Spaceflight Trainer @NASAAdmin #NASA #Artemis @rookisaacman

🚀 FIVE YEARS. ONE COMMUNITY. ONE MISSION. 🌎💙 September 15, 2021 — a day that changed the story of human spaceflight… and the day Inspired24 began its own journey. Five years later, what started as an idea has grown into a global community of people who believe that the future of space is not something we simply watch from the ground — it’s something we can all help build. ✨ Over these five years, we’ve trained, learned, collaborated, supported one another, celebrated milestones, welcomed new faces, and created opportunities to get closer to the world of space exploration. But the greatest achievement isn’t a number, a training, or an event. It’s the people. The dreamers who joined us. The members who showed up for each other. The innovators who asked, “What if?” The explorers who refused to stop looking upward. And everyone who found a place in this community and thought: “I belong here.” 🌟 Today, we celebrate five years of Inspired24 — and every person who has been part of the journey. To our members, supporters, partners, and friends around the world: Thank you for helping make this community what it is. 💙 Five years behind us. An entire universe ahead. 🚀 Happy 5th Anniversary, Inspired24! INSPIRED 2 SPACE 4 ALL! 🌎🚀✨ #Inspired24 #I24 #5thAnniversary #SpaceCommunity #SpaceForAll #Inspiration4
