Astronauts 4 Hire

 

The Civilian Astronaut is Born

With so many companies (Virgin, XCOR, Armadillo etc.) now on the verge of flying regular paying customers to the edge of space and back, it's interesting to note that we don't know much about the edge of space. Not a lot of research has been conducted at sub-orbital altitudes (around 100 km up), so a great need has risen for research conducted by scientists aboard sub-orbital vehicles. Is it a dream of yours to one day go to space (sure it is, why wouldnt it be...)? Would you like to get paid to do it while participating in some awesome science research? Then I recommend getting to know Astronauts 4 Hire.

This post will talk about Astronauts 4 Hire, and what it takes to be a civillian astronaut/scientist. We will also take a look into their first research mission involving Space Beer (yum...).
