per hour on the international space station braving radiation and higher velocity space junk saskia taylor's been causing an astronaut and 2 cosmonauts including russia's only woman space pilot on the joys and challenges of life in 0 gravity. ok but what should what does the typical day of the cosmonauts preparing for flights look like the 1st one for example what is the cause and we have every day there is a person responsible for it who monitors with the parson examine each subject and go through all the necessary training the shuttle is very diverse you could be sitting in a classroom diving underwater skydiving or studying computer techniques that variety makes the difficult training that it calls more exciting we have to be multiskilled specialists and know how to do everything yet when you are in your course of a couple of i get it it sounds like spaceflight preparations are now piece of cake but for lazy people chin up you can go into space without such conflicts training it's easy you just need to be an actor the space race has continued in unexpected ways nasa has said it's planning
