      I would love to go to space! I hope to apply to the US astronaut program. I’d love to be stationed at the ISS but really want to see space rocks up close and in person on the Moon or Mars!

      I wouldn’t want to be an astronaut as the training is too long and consumes your life for years! And I don’t really fancy spending months on the ISS either. Not that I think I would be selected for an astronaut candidate anyway as it is so hard to get in.

      I’d love to go to space when space tourism starts going though, and you can just go for a few hours or a few days, and not have to do loads of training first. I’d love to see the Earth from above, and the moon floating above you, and the curvature of the Earth with the black of space above 🙂
