Rachel Lyons

Introduction


In 2017, space investor Dylan Taylor founded not-for-profit Space for Humanity, and Rachel Lyons became its first full-time employee. Under her leadership, Space for Humanity assisted in sending four civilians to space, making global headlines. She fostered partnerships with the likes of Virgin Galactic, Axiom, and Blue Origin and has worked with astronauts, engineers, and start-up founders to help them become leaders in the space sector.


Rachel sat down to chat with Space Network about her work, her slightly unconventional path into the space sector, how she sees the sector as a whole and what the main challenges are.
