Amanda Knutson Chief Engineering Officer, Mission Specialist: Extravehicular Activity Amanda Knutson is an Active Duty US Air Force member, currently working as a Weapons Armament Specialist at Luke AFB. While working full time at Luke AFB, she is studying part-time at Estrella Mountain Community College with plans to complete her Bachelor’s Degree in Mechanical Engineering at Embry-Riddle. As a high school student enamored of engineering, Amanda was part of the FIRST Robotics Tech Challenge and Lego League programs. In 2017, she earned a place at the World Competition of FIRST Robotics securing the Engineering Inspiration award supported by NASA.   During the SENSORIA mission, Amanda brought and built an entirely new space capsule aquaponics system of her own design that can be used in micro- and fractional gravity conditions with an eye toward long-duration space missions. Additionally, she is developing her own “propellant depots” for deep space missions to Jupiter and Saturn. As a strong STEM advocate, she looks to inspire children and adults alike to strive for to achieve their own ambitions.    Chelsea Gohd Chief Science Officer, Mission Specialist: Documentary Filmmaker Chelsea Gohd is a Senior Writer at Space.com, where she writes articles and creates and hosts videos about everything from climate change to exoplanet exploration and human spaceflight. Prior to her work at Space.com, Chelsea worked as a freelancer, with bylines in publications including Scientific American, Astronomy Magazine and Discover Magazine. She also recently wrote an installation for the American Museum of Natural History's Hall of Meteorites, which included touchscreen exhibit placards and design and text for interactive, in-exhibit games.   Chelsea is also a musician and writes, performs and records indie pop music under the pseudonym Foxanne. As Foxanne, she released her debut full-length record in 2020, titled "It's real (I knew it)," named after an iconic scene from the hit sci-fi film "Galaxy Quest." The album features a number of space-y easter eggs, including audio from the OA-9 rocket launch, a 2018 cargo mission that launched from NASA's Wallops Flight Facility, and a song written from the perspective of NASA's Opportunity rover.  Indie pop artist Foxanne released her debut full-length album "It's real (I knew it)" in December of 2020. The highly anticipated independent release can be found on all available platforms for streaming and download including Spotify, iTunes and Bandcamp. The album was produced by Doug Gallo at AGL studios and mastered by Daughterboard Audio.

Amanda Knutson is anything but. She is pleasant, personable and guest on episode 13 of the podcast. She talks about some of the logistics it takes to run that kind of event. She also talks about how she got her start in the sport in a crazy event called RAGBRAI. She was a spectator since she was a child and then got on the bike and hasn’t stopped riding. She calls Boulder Colorado her home yet seems to be globetrotting quite a bit. Her mind works as basically one big problem solver. She helps coordinate logistics, covers scheduling, social media, local volunteers, support and everything else it takes to help run a race of this magnitude. Amanda is also a great bike racer in her own right excelling in gravel and endurance rides. Recently she finished 8th at BWR and hopes to improve on that next year. At 26 she is has a big future in the sport and is helping bring more attention to RAAM and anything else she puts her mind to. Please listen to this fun and interesting episode! We also have segments on the show which cover listener feedback, “Bridging up” and “Gear Guide” where we are reviewing a cool product from Pedal Industries. Tune in to this action packed show!
