EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a cosmonaut in training, submerged in a water tank at Star City, Russia. The intense preparation for spacewalks (extravehicular activities, EVA) is evident as the cosmonaut undergoes rigorous training by maneuvering around a mock-up of the Mir space station. The purpose of this unique training exercise is to equip cosmonauts with the necessary skills to inspect, maintain, and repair the hull of Mir while in orbit. To simulate weightlessness experienced during space missions, the diving suits worn by these brave individuals provide neutral buoyancy in the water. Star City's expansive pool serves as an ideal environment for such trainings. With its impressive dimensions - 23 meters in diameter and 12 meters deep - it offers ample room for cosmonauts to practice their maneuvers effectively. Beyond its aquatic facilities, Star City boasts an array of amenities essential for comprehensive astronaut training. Classrooms facilitate theoretical learning while laboratories enable hands-on experimentation. Physical training facilities ensure that aspiring astronauts are physically fit for their demanding journeys into space. Additionally, centrifuges and thermal chambers allow cosmonauts to experience conditions similar to those encountered during launch and re-entry phases. As we gaze upon this remarkable image captured by Science Photo Library, we are reminded of the dedication and perseverance required from these extraordinary individuals who push boundaries beyond Earth's atmosphere on behalf of humanity's quest for knowledge about our universe.
