The next class of astronauts may fly on any of four different U.S. spacecraft during their careers: the International Space Station (@ISS), two new commercial spacecraft being built by U.S. companies, and NASA’s Orion deep-space exploration vehicle.
To date, we’ve selected more than 300 astronauts to fly our increasingly challenging missions to explore space and benefit life on Earth. More will be needed for future missions to the space station and beyond on our journey to Mars.
