Space mission by a woman who had beaten cancer, Hayley Arceneaux

 The first person to become an astronaut after defeating bone cancer. The first person to go into space with artificial bones in his legs. The youngest American to orbit the Earth.

Hayley, age 29, could soon make headlines.

In January, the assistant physician was selected to embark on the world's first civilian space mission.

Hayley was very happy to learn this at first. But she was told to keep it to himself.

"I hid the biggest secret of my life for a month and a half," she told the BBC. Now I am allowed to tell the world. "

Haley has been selected for this historic mission, the St. Jude Children's Research Hospital in Memphis announced Monday. Here, Haley Arsenal used to be a cancer patient and now works.

Elon Musk, one of the world's richest men, will fly a Falcon Nine rocket later this year with SpaceX.

"I think this mission will affect people in many ways," she says. It will tell them that anything is possible. " There will be no professional astronauts in this space mission.

Instead, there will be two winners of a competition with Haley. Flight Commander Jared Isaacman, 38, is a billionaire who has been supporting the entire mission.

This mission is a pilot project of Isaacman. He announced on February 1 that he had purchased the rocket launch.

Through the flight, Isaacman aims to raise  200 million dollars for St. Jude's Hospital. They will donate half of this amount themselves.

The space mission had four seats, one of which was offered to hospital staff.

"From the beginning, I wanted a crew member to be part of a mission that would inspire hope," says Isaacman. There is no one better than Haley who can handle the responsibility. "

For Haley, this space mission is more than a sensation. They thought it would never be possible.

At the age of 10, Haley was diagnosed with bone cancer in St. Jude. During the treatment, he underwent chemotherapy and during the surgery, artificial bones were replaced in his legs.

Haley would never have become an astronaut again in a single era. His dreams of becoming an astronaut would have been unfulfilled due to the strict medical conditions of NASA.

But over the years, private space missions have revived many people's hopes. They can now think of approaching the stars again.

"I could never have been an astronaut before this mission," says Haley. With this mission, space travel is opening up for people with physical disabilities.

Haley's home is in Tennessee. She received a sudden call on January 5 asking if she wanted to go on this space mission.

Her answer: "I immediately said, 'Yes, yes.' Please'.'

She asked his family if they opposed it. Her brother and sister-in-law are aerospace engineers who said "space travel is very safe." She then joined the mission.

Isaacman will select and name the other two members in March. One of them will be the winner of the competition, the proceeds of which will be donated to St. Jude's Hospital.

The second member will be the winner of another contest. It asks young programmers to create an online store using the software of Isaacman's payment technology company Shift Four.

After the election, the members will undergo rigorous training that will last for several months. This mission will be tested on the ground with zero gravity.

The flight will have heli medical officers. He is already wearing his space suit. "It's amazing," she says, "but it's heavier than she expected."

Haley is likely to get used to the space suit. His rocket will take off from the Kennedy Space Center in Florida in late 2021.

Haley must have been wearing this space suit for several days. Meanwhile, SpaceX's dragon capsule will be orbiting the earth.

At the end of the mission, the dragon capsule will enter the Earth's atmosphere. It will land on the east coast of the United States.

Is Haley scared?

"I'm not scared at all," says Haley. I have met with lead engineers to prepare for the mission. I trust them. "

Space travel shouldn't be a bigger issue than what happened to her as a child.

"It's a great honor to represent cancer patients and those who beat them," she said. It's not as old as I was when I was in a similar situation. "

"During cancer treatment, your focus is on daily activities. It is very difficult to think of the future. I hope that with this mission, these people will also be able to think about their future.
