He was the first time I heard if anyone with those qualifications. You're saying there's more like him applying? Anyway Neil Armstrong's qualifications were also incredible.
People think they go to the army to learn but in real life they go there to be degraded, manipulated ,disrespected , broke down then they throw in plastic stars to make you feel like you've done something but all the people are doing is being brainwashed to become dogs short story long
@@TamNguyen-yk9mnThis is pretty much it. Your putting Humanity and it's advancements ahead of yourself. I'm pretty sure they also get benefits after, like retirement and a few other things.
Being an astronaut is something that most people will never get to do for a career. This is a country of 330 million people and we’ve had only 360 astronauts. It’s an exclusive club.
The requirements are infringing upon my safe space. As a mentally ill trans-species person who’s paralyzed from the hair down, me not getting this job would be bigoted and racist. For the sake of inclusivity and diversity I demand this job. Zero work experience btw, please hire me.
Well, I have always wanted to be an astronaut. My father was a Ph.D. In electrical and aerospace engineering so when I grew up we lived in Houston, TX during Gemini and Apollo and then in Florida during shuttle missions to name a few things he did, excluding civil service to the military. I Graduated from Duke University in 1982 (Chemistry/Psychology), a medical degree in 1993, nearly 30 years as a Navy Family physician, retiring in 2021. So my age this year will be 64 in August, still in good shape. I believe that age limits will be my downfall. What do you think?
You have led an esteemed and prolific life, you should be proud. I think you might be able to work for NASA but given your age you are probably indeed too old to be an astronaut even if everything else was in line.
If you’re an astronaut, you’re part of an exclusive club. This is a country of 330 million people and we’ve had 360 astronauts. It’s something that most people in this country will never have a chance to do as a career. I love astronomy and space exploration but being an astronaut was never an ambition for me.
Sounds like they’re having the same problem as the airline industry. It’s too expensive to get into that field. And that amount of income won’t pay off that student debt. I mean, it’s not just flight hours we’re dealing with.
A masters STEM degree can get you an average of like 120k-300k salary in most of US. Astronaut salary tops out at 140k for seniors… why on earth would people apply for this job other than if you REALLLY wanna leave the planet”
@@valmiro4164 I got a job offer from Blizzard to work on world of Warcraft. They offered 70k and wanted me in office down in Cali. I said 70k doesn’t even pay for rent there so I’m not taking it. And they said “you should work for passion, not for pay!” Well… passion doesn’t pay bills. They should pay me out of passion.
If it's any consolation, Space is so far out there that there is no such thing as "high" or "low" nor "up" nor "down" without a spherical object as a reference point.
How many airline pilots actually have a master's degree? Most have a bachelor's, at maximum. Even if they had a master's, that's just eligibility. In reality, NASA is probably looking specifically for an airforce pilot, just as they always have.
There are rigorous physical and mental requirements. For instance, you have to go in a centrifuge, and show that you don't become incapacitated, and are still able to function mentally whilst doing so. Also the teamwork and leadership requirements, and personality traits are tested and evaluated continuously.
Yeah I'm sure the tens of thousands of astronomers that exist are all part of this grand conspiracy to stop the population from learning that the Earth is flat. They probably all meet up together once a year and dance around a Flat Earth model.
where are they traveling to? if it's the grand canyon distance, ok fine. but if it's far as another country... i'm going to have to pass. i'm not really a fan being stuck in a metal tube for too long
@@BigHeadAvenger LOL, you would actually disagree and take offense to someone saying it's good that they have high standards to recruit astronauts? That's crazy.
How about this NASA? I don't have a Masters, but if you fund me, I'll get one. Or, better yet, I'll take 60k a year and do the job for cheap as long as you train me. Sounds good?
I'm going to be disappointed if Sir Elton John isn't the candidate selected. Only other acceptable option is William Shatner he is also a Rocketman and had many years of experience on the Starship Enterprise.
Most people will never get to go to outer space or walk on the moon. Even if they do meet all those requirements. It’s something that most people can only dream of. The risks of the job are also very intense.

150 grand a year, and no where to to spend it in space
Seems like any airline pilot with a masters can be eligible, tho with the application numbers, there’s gotta be more than just those requirements
Its specifically fixed wing jet hours for the pilot, so normal airline pilots could only apply for mission specialist.
Well there's the part of getting selected among a gazillion candidates for a handful of positions.
Those are the requirements to apply - many times astronauts are extremely educated (MD/PhD) and come with military experience (air force) in addition.

No one can fly in the open firmament except He who was sent down and He who died and rose to heaven. A walk on the moon is a walk in the desert.

That might be possible in the future. Wake up one morning, fly to space, upgrade some machinery, then come back home in time for the game.
