PHOENIX A 21-year community college professor from the Valley is ready to accomplish a lifelong dream. It is something I wanted my entire life, Dr. Sian Proctor said.
Last week, Dr. Proctor was named as one of the crew members of Inspiration4, the first-ever all civilian crewed mission to space.
It s been Proctor s dream almost from birth. I was born 8.5 months after Neil Armstrong stepping onto the moon. So I like to think of myself as a celebration baby, Dr. Proctor said.
