[net.space] Astronaut Selection

eugene@ames.UUCP (Eugene Miya) (07/08/85)

From the Ames Astrogram:

Starting August 1, 1985, the NASA Astronaut selection program will shift
to a continuous process.  Applications for astronaut positions will be
taken full time.

Pilot qualifications include 1,000 hours pilot-in-command of jet aircraft
(I think few on the net have this) plus more.

Mission specialists need:
	- bachelor's degree in engineering, physical, bio science, or
	  math.
	- at least three years of related professional experience or higher
	  degree
	- ability to pass a NASA Class II flight physical
	- height between 60 and 76 inches

	AHX/Astronaut Selection Program
	Houston, TX 77058

Don't mail me.  I've nothing to do with this.
