Astronaut experiences

Explore the human side of space.

An interest in space does not have to begin with a launch. Explore educational astronaut experiences, introductory training activities and individually arranged encounters that bring the human story of space closer.

Explore spaceflight preparation

Depending on the programme, introductory activities may include familiarisation with spaceflight concepts, simulations or physical preparation. We discuss the available formats before recommending an experience. Introductory training is not professional astronaut certification or mission approval.

Meet the people behind the journey

Ask us about the possibility of a conversation or private event with an astronaut. Speaker participation, format, location and dates depend on individual availability and written confirmation. No particular speaker is promised on this website.

For individuals and private groups

An educational programme can be developed around personal curiosity, a family occasion or a corporate gathering. We begin with your interests, group size and preferred setting, then assess what can be arranged.

Educational experiences are not professional astronaut certification. Mission-specific training remains the responsibility of the relevant flight programme.
