41 - Inspiration 4: The First Commercial Space Mission (Jared Isaacman, Inspiration 4 Mission Commander and Shift4 Payments CEO)
In late January, SpaceX announced that they would launch the first civilian-only commercial flight no earlier than Q4 2021. Jared Isaacman, CEO of Shift4 Payments, was named as the mission commander and sponsor.
Dubbed Inspiration 4, Jared is crewing his mission with 3 other individuals. The first is a front-line medical worker. The second will be drawn from donors to St Jude Children's Research Hospital. And the 3rd will be selected from an inspiring group of entrepreneurs who leverage the Shift4Shop platform.
In this episode, Jared takes us deep into his background as a civilian fighter pilot, entrepreneur, the inspiration behind Inspiration 4, and why commercial space flight matters as humanity reaches deeper into our solar system.
