She recently posted photos in her facebook captioning, “I recently completed Analog Astronaut training and was officially certified as an Analog Astronaut. As the Commander of the Sirius mission and engineer support, I had four crew members from all over the world (the USA, Mexico, and Poland). It was an incredible learning experience for all of us. The training lasted two weeks in Poland, and I was the first Nepali-American to attend (Lunares research station).”
She added, “New technologies, robotic equipment, vehicles, habitats, communications, power generation, design, mobility, aero and hydro plantation, etc are frequently tested and researched in our roles. Isolation and confinement team dynamics, menu fatigue and other behavioral effects are also observed. I was given the once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. And I want to express my gratitude to my parents, siblings, relatives, friends, and the United States Air Force, for all of their great assistance. #lunares #spaceismore”.
