| In our 2011 session of Advanced Astronaut Training Camp, students
entering into 4th-8th grades experienced what is it like to be a NASA astronaut
training to travel up in space. Advanced astronauts participated in several
mental and physical challenges related to rocket design, space life, and
general study of physics. They also learned basic SCUBA diving skills to
participate in a one-day underwater astronaut training program based off
the underwater training that NASA uses to prepare its astronauts for working
in the conditions of space. |
