Proctor describes the phenomena and uses mockups to explain the science behind what is being seen. Genius by Stephen Hawking (2016)Proctor appears in Episode 2: Are We Alone.[5] During this episode she, along with two other individuals, are challenged to "think like a genius" and discover the science behind the search for extraterrestrial life.

Astronomy in Chile Educator Ambassadors Program (ACEAP) (2016)Proctor was selected as a 2016 ACEAP Ambassador. The ACEAP is a National Science Foundation (NSF) program that sends K-16 formal and informal astronomy educators to US astronomy facilities in Chile.[11] During the summer of 2016 she joined 8 other ambassadors as they visited Cerro Tololo Inter-American Observatory (CTIO), Gemini South Observatory, and the Atacama Large Millimeter-submillimeter Array (ALMA). Proctor returned to San Pedro, Chile in 2017 to engage in STEM education outreach activities with the local high school and surrounding community. PolarTREC (2014)Proctor was selected as 2014 PolarTREC teacher. PolarTREC is a National Science Foundation (NSF) funded program that connects teachers with scientist conducting research in the arctic and Antarctic regions. Sian spent a month in Barrow, Alaska learning Historical Ecology for Risk Management and investigating the impact of climate change on the coastline and community.[12] HI-SEAS (2013)Proctor was the education outreach officer for the NASA funded Hawai’i Space Exploration Analog and Simulation (HI-SEAS) mission. The purpose of HI-SEAS mission was to investigate food strategies for long duration space flight and missions to the Moon or Mars. During the 4-month simulation Proctor was hired by Discover Magazine as the photographer for Kate Greene's article Simulating Mars on Earth.[13] She also filmed the Meals for Mars YouTube Series while in the Mars simulation. 2009 NASA Astronaut SelectionProctor was a finalist for the 2009 NASA Astronaut Selection Process. She competed against over 3,500 applications to make the top 47.
