Hayley Arceneaux is an American astronaut and cancer survivor. She was born on September 2, 1991, in New Orleans, Louisiana. Arceneaux was diagnosed with osteosarcoma, a type of bone cancer, at the age of 10. She underwent surgery and chemotherapy, but the cancer returned. She underwent a second surgery and was told she had only a few months to live. However, she defied the odds and survived the cancer. Arceneaux was selected as one of the four crew members for the Inspiration 4 mission, which will be the first all-civilian crew to go to space. She will be the first child cancer survivor in space and the first person with a prosthetic body part in space.
