This is the closest simulation that exists of a real space flight!

Receive your first pair of Astrowings.

Become part of a select group of "Space Rangers"!

Be an "Astronaut for a Day"!


ASTRO WINGS


Train like a genuine astronaut and receive your first pair of "Astro Wings".

Experience a launch to the Moon, dock with the International Space Station "ISS", learn to land a spacecraft yourself and enjoy the magnificent view!

Soon, you too can experience space travel and call yourself a "Space Ranger".


OVERVIEW EFFECT


Astronauts that fly up into space and marvel down at the earth, say that they are never the same person again after that. They experience what is called the “overview effect”. The evolution you go through as a person is literally a point of no return. Do you also want to get a taste of what it’s like to be a space traveller?


Welcome to Space, "Astronaut"!
