+Ladislav Tánczos i think that is the position the astronauts ride in at launch, so they have to preflight fit and comfort of suits for launch to assure all is correct when in capsule spacecraft.
Ladislav Tánczos Sorry for responding on a super old comment, you probably don't even care anymore, but it's a simulation of the flight position (testing if the astronaut is comfortable and if the suit fits good while in the chair) or basically what the guy above me said.
The country with the greatest amount of space experience is the USA, and we're proud and honored to lead the charge into many more years of exploring space not only via the ISS aka Alpha but with more missions to the moon and to Mars and beyond, we are the leaders of spaceflight and we hope to teach all of humanity about it!
It’s not that the US is “the best” it’s human race that made all of this possible and Yes, the US has done many things which involve space but so have others.
If you or anybody else could share a link to ANY video showing ANY spaceman, doing ANYTHING of "Scientific significance" onboard the international play station, It would be very much appreciated ....
