21、What training do astronauts need?

In 2003, Yang Liwei became the first Chinese astronaut in space. Since then, another 17 astronauts have reached for the stars. Do you dream of being an astronaut? How did they do it?

In space, changes in the environment and loneliness test the minds and bodies of astronauts. So, the training (训练) for astronauts is very hard. “Astronauts take over 200 different training subjects before going to space,” Huang Weifen, chief designer of the astronaut system for China’s manned space project, told CCTV News. These include science and mental health (心理健康) classes.

The most tiring one is underwater training. Astronauts stay under the water in clothes heavier than 100 kilograms for six hours at a time. The heavy clothes make every move hard. “An astronaut once said he lost two kilograms after one underwater exercise,” said Huang. Each astronaut does training for at least three and a half years before getting the chance to go to space.

New chances for all

This year, China is finding new people to be the fourth group of astronauts. The first and second groups of Chinese astronauts were all from the Chinese People’s Liberation Army Air Force (中国人民解放军空军). However, in the third group, civilians (平民/非军人) could also become astronauts. They are experts (专家) and can do science studies in space. They don’t need to have “perfect (完美的)” bodies like pilot astronauts (航天驾驶员).
