“For decades, Florida has been the launchpad for space exploration and innovation, so it should come as no surprise that the first married couple to explore space together are from our state. Congratulations to Sharon and Marc Hagle – you are an inspiration to Floridians across the state.” Ron DeSantis, Governor of Florida
"Sharon and Marc Hagle will further that proud heritage as they proudly represent our state as the first married couple on a commercial spaceflight. More will follow, but first is first." Frank DiBello, Space Florida President and CEO
