Calling all prospective astronauts!

Grab your classmates (and your teacher)  to join an international programme that focuses on nutrition and exercise. How many steps would it take to walk to the Moon? Each little step you take in the Train Like an Astronaut programme can bring you closer!

Although designed for 8-12 year olds, the challenge is for anyone and everyone who is curious about space exploration and what it takes to be an astronaut.

For teachers: Mission Data details the activities available for Mission X.  ”Educational investigations” are designed for science classes and “train like an astronaut missions” are designed for physical education classes. Activities have been developed by ESA and NASA.
