About Anastasia

Anastasia Prosina is an entrepreneur who transforms novel technologies into commercial opportunities. With an MS in Space Architecture, she is a published researcher, speaker, and expert on extreme environments, space habitats, and human factors in spaceflight.

Anastasia works with Fortune 500 companies to bridge the gap between advanced aerospace concepts and practical applications. Her company, Stellar Amenities, supported AstroAccess's inaugural program to help disabled ambassadors learn to navigate in weightlessness, a program supported by former Virgin Galactic CEO George Whitesides and the former medical team of Stephen Hawking. In 2024, the Aurelia Institute selected her pressure therapy system for zero-gravity testing, demonstrating dual applications for both orbital habitats and terrestrial healthcare environments.

Her strategic commercialization expertise has helped companies secure over $46M in funding through compelling market positioning and technical qualification strategies. Named to Payload Pioneer's 30 Under 30 list in 2023, Anastasia's insights have been featured in The Washington Post, CNBC, and Aerospace America.

"In architecture, the vision of an architect comes first, and then an engineer helps this vision become a reality. In space architecture, the process starts with a group of engineers who design and assemble the spacecraft, outfitted with the necessary systems. A space architect comes afterwards to help design for the human needs in the confined environment.”
