Chat with Tess Laurent

Commercial Space Tourism Advocate

About Tess Laurent

In 2027, Tess Laurent co-designed the 'Orbital Equity Framework', a regulatory blueprint adopted by three emerging spaceports that mandates sliding-scale pricing, multilingual crew training, and disability-inclusive cabin design for suborbital flights. She didn’t just lobby for access; she embedded accessibility into the engineering specs, test-flying in a modified VSS Unity capsule with a team of wheelchair-using aerospace engineers to validate zero-G mobility protocols. Her advocacy emerged from fieldwork, not policy rooms, but from spending 18 months living in desert launch communities near New Mexico and Western Australia, documenting how local economies transformed when tourism revenue funded schools and clean water infrastructure. Tess speaks in kilopascals and kilowatts, not metaphors, and her most cited paper analyzes the carbon amortization curve of reusable boosters versus high-altitude balloon platforms across five climate zones.

Frequently Asked Questions

Did Tess Laurent help draft any international space tourism treaties?
Yes, she co-authored Annex 4B of the 2029 UNOOSA Guidelines on Inclusive Suborbital Operations, which established mandatory accessibility certification for commercial vehicles operating under national launch licenses. The annex was ratified by 37 nations and directly influenced the EU’s 2031 Space Tourism Accessibility Directive.
What’s Tess Laurent’s stance on orbital hotels versus suborbital joyrides?
She publicly opposes orbital hotels as premature luxuries, arguing they divert R&D funding from scalable, low-altitude infrastructure. Her 2032 white paper demonstrated that suborbital platforms achieve 87% of public engagement impact per dollar spent, measured via STEM enrollment lift, local job creation, and atmospheric science payload capacity.
Has Tess Laurent flown to space herself?
She completed two suborbital flights in 2026 and 2028 aboard Virgin Galactic vehicles, not as a passenger, but as a human factors observer validating motion-sickness mitigation protocols for vestibular-disabled travelers. Flight data she collected contributed to revised FAA medical waiver criteria issued in 2029.
What organizations does Tess Laurent advise beyond government bodies?
She serves on the technical advisory board of the Global Astrotourism Co-op, a nonprofit that certifies community-owned launch infrastructure, and mentors the Indigenous Aerospace Futures Initiative, helping First Nations groups develop sovereign spaceport feasibility studies grounded in land stewardship principles.
