  1. Military pilots mainly... well if they're freemasons...

    Google/youtube: "Dark Mission"


  2. NASA solicits applications for astronaut training every two years.  They just closed applications in early July, so two years from now you can apply.  Check out their websites for eligibility information.

  3. Go to NASA website & see if they have  applications form

    for that !!!

  4. There are many possible career paths to take before you can get considered to become astronaut. The most successful yet, is becoming military test pilot. Test pilots are almost as rare as astronauts and have very similar requirements. When you managed to become test pilot, you have good chances becoming astronaut.

    The next is a very good scientific career. You don't have to be good, you have to be among the best. Engineering knowledge is already prerequisite for test pilots, so you can be sure without academic background, you will not become astronaut. The time when astronauts had been just the better monkeys, are long gone since Gemini.

    The next step towards space is always the same: You apply for it. Nobody will step towards you and ask you: Hey, want to fly into space? You have to tell them that you exist.

    Also: Don't worry about age. most people  become astronauts in their late thirties. Skills and experience are more important for astronauts as promising talents.

    That's how it is today... but future might change. Maybe in 20 years, NASA will no longer be the only US employer for astronauts. Maybe companies will hire astronauts as pilots for tourist flights. Or resupply missions to space stations.

    We don't know yet - all that is sure is that space was never as close to Earth, as it is now (metaphorically speaking)

  5. Try the Mickey Mouse fan club.....

  6. You don't apply. You join the military, become a pilot,  and they ask you to be an astronaut if they think you're good enough.
