A Look Into the Rigorous Trainings of an Astronaut

This documentary explores the demanding training that turns candidates into astronauts, following the people who venture into space. Once the preserve of test pilots, spaceflight now draws scientists, teachers and paying travellers, and this film asks what it takes to earn astronaut wings. It shows the rigorous preparation, simulations and physical trials behind every mission. It is an absorbing look at the human side of modern space exploration. Free to watch in HD on Dr Documentary.
