SPACE TRAINING AROUND THE WORLD

Mix and match from our many options to create
your own personalized space training program

Air Combat Adventures

Get fitted with a flight suit, helmet, and parachute; climb into the cockpit and try your hand at formation flying and aerobatics. You and your instructor work as a team to out-smart and out-gun your opponents through "g-pulling" dogfights and maneuvers. Read more

Warbirds USA

Choose from a variety of historic aircraft and take the controls to experience g-forces and vestibular action. No pilot’s license required! An instructor will taxi, take-off and land, but you get to do the rest. Read more

Zero Gravity, USA

Experience the sensation of floating in space and accomplish tasks with no gravity just like the astronauts during a weightless flight. Fly through a series of parabolic maneuvers that simulate zero gravity. Read more

Receive an informative introduction to orbital and suborbital physics and the physiologic aspects of space travel with the MAD Machine, which simulates sensations of space travel. Read more

Receive detailed classroom briefings and hypobaric (high-altitude) chamber training where you will learn how to identify and respond to low oxygen, night vision deficiency, and rapid decompression situations.

Climb to the edge of space and go breathless into a tail slide or travel at more than twice the speed of sound with one of Russia's top test pilots. You’ll experience high-altitude flight and aerobatics to test your stamina for space. Read more

Experience weightlessness in a parabolic flight in a Russian IL-76 MDK. Read more

Fly the L-39 Albatross where Russian pilots train at Vyazma Air Base; the G forces are very real! Read more

Train in the CF-7 and CF-18 for conditions of accelerated space flight, including ascent (+g) and descent (-g) of spacecraft, physiological microgravity, temperature fluctuations, cabin pressure, humidity and gas composition. Ask about other programs and packages offered. Read more

Acquire and master the skills necessary to accomplish space walk operations through a simulated mission, with full space gear, to a depth of 12 meters in a giant swimming pool, which provides approximately 80% buoyancy. Read more

Learn to resist motion sickness and adapt to weightlessness in rotating chairs and inclined tables, which simulate different motions of space travel. Read more

Spend an action packed day or week at Star City outside Moscow and train the way the cosmonauts do. Experience some or all: centrifuge, hydrolab, vestibular training, docking simulator and more. Read more
