Civilian Astronaut Candidate Dr. Ruben Salinas Joins Starborn Academy as Ambassador

PARK CITY, UT / ACCESSWIRE / February 20, 2024 / Uplift Aerospace (Symbol:NRPI) announced that the company's civilian astronaut candidate, Dr. Ruben Salinas, joins Uplift's newly launched virtual reality (VR) Starborn Academy program as an ambassador. Dr. Salinas completed his commercial astronaut training under Uplift Aerospace's community space program in 2023 and is a researcher and advocate for the use of VR in emotional well-being and education.

The Starborn Academy, powered by Uplift Aerospace, is a 9-week virtual astronaut training experience. The Starborn Academy will leverage Ruben's extraordinary experiences climbing Mount Everest and upcoming suborbital spaceflight to help ignite a passion for STEM education and environmental conservation while reminding all participants of the importance of dreaming big. Through a series of in-person and virtual engagements, students from selected schools will have the opportunity to meet Ruben and participate in his training journey.

"The Starborn Academy elicits awe and wonder in students while introducing them to new life and career opportunities," said Josh Hanes, CEO of Uplift Aerospace. "By sharing Ruben's journey, from his Mount Everest summit attempt this spring to his upcoming suborbital spaceflight and research on eliciting the overview effect with VR, we aim to foster a curiosity for the unknown and a dedication to overcoming our planet's greatest challenges."
