  • Summary

  • In How it Happened: The Next Astronauts, Axios space reporter Miriam Kramer follows the first space flight to orbit without professional astronauts. Kramer will take listeners inside the story of the Inspiration4 mission, which SpaceX aims to launch on September 15. The podcast will chronicle the selection of these four civilians and their training at SpaceX headquarters. Kramer will go behind the scenes, bringing listeners into conversations with the crew as they grapple with challenges, the risks inherent in space travel and preparing their families for the launch. The mission has high stakes for the crew and for SpaceX, but it's also pivotal for the industry and could influence the future of private space travel. First, in this prologue, Kramer brings listeners into the current moment for the space industry and why so much is riding on this particular mission.
