Exploring space
Astronauts travel to space to conduct scientific research, maintain spacecraft, and push the boundaries of human exploration. Only a handful are selected from thousands of applicants.
You run microgravity experiments on the ISS, perform a spacewalk to repair a solar panel, exercise two hours to combat bone loss, and video-call your family 250 miles below. The view never gets old.
