For most of us, the dreams we have as children fade away in lieu of reality - but this 17-year-old is dedicating her life to all-things space in a bid to be the first human to step-foot on Mars.

When she was 3-years-old, Alyssa Carson was watching an episode of the children’s cartoon, ‘The Backyardigans’, in which the beloved characters travelled to Mars, giving birth to a lifelong obsession.

Reportedly turning to her father, Bert, and proclaiming ‘Daddy, I want to be an astronaut’, from there Alyssa, from Louisiana, USA, has dedicated the last 14-years attempting to turn her childhood dream into a reality.

Attending nearly twenty space camps across the world, from LA to Turkey, the teenager is now well versed in a variety of specialist skills, including underwater survival, microgravity training and even decompression training.
