Summary
| Description | NASA’s ten astronaut candidates have spent the past two years in basic training to become flight-eligible astronauts. Since their selection in December 2021, they have been learning International Space Station systems, training for spacewalks, practicing robotic operations, operating T-38 jets, studying wilderness survival, and much more. Two astronauts from the United Arab Emirates have trained alongside them every step of the way. The bulk of their training took place at NASA’s Johnson Space Center in Houston, Texas. The completion of this training signifies their graduation as flight-eligible astronauts, meaning they are now able to be selected to go to space. Once they are assigned a mission to space, the astronaut will continue their training at a deeper level.
