SPACE TRAINING AROUND THE WORLD
Mix and match from our many options to create
your own personalized space training program |
| United
States |
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
|
Multi-Axis Disorientation (MAD) Machine |
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
|
NASTAR Altitude Chamber |
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.

MiG-29 Fulcrum Russia (Edge of Space) |
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
|
Zero-Gravity, Russia |
Experience weightlessness in a parabolic flight in a Russian IL-76 MDK. Read more |
L
-39 Albatross Jet Flight |
Fly the L-39 Albatross where Russian pilots train at Vyazma Air Base; the G forces are very real! Read more
|
Centrifuge |
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
|
Hydrolab |
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
|
Vestibular |
Learn to resist motion sickness and adapt to weightlessness in rotating chairs and inclined tables, which simulate different motions of space travel. Read more
|
Cosmonaut for a Day |
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

Sample Space Training Packages
Here are a few sample space training packages that will prepare you and give you a taste of what the real space experience feels like. Find out if you have "the right stuff".
For less than $5,000: Experience G forces and aerobatics as well as test your vestibular endurance with an expanded air combat program.
For less than $8,000: Combine zero gravity, an L-39 flight full of speed and then try out the MAD (Multi-Axis Disorientation Machine). Experience sustained g forces.
For less than $30,000: The Edge of Space flight in a MiG-29 is almost as good as it gets for preparing your body for speed and g forces. The next day find out what the rotations of a centrifuge feel like and how to maneuver while wearing a real space suit. This is how cosmonauts and astronauts train to work under conditions of real G loads.
For less than $50,000: Add an experience in the hydrolab to the above program for a different weightless experience while attempting mission tasks |
