Alexander Gerst Instagram – Joining the ranks today: ESA’s new class of astronauts!
Congratulations @soph_astro, @astro.rosemary, @pablo_alvarez_astro, @raphael_astro, @esaastro_marco and @australianspaceagency astronaut candidate @aussieastrokatherine on becoming certified #astronauts.
Leading this exceptional team through basic training, whether in the sky, water, or on land, has been a remarkable honour.
From learning space technology and science, basic medical skills to training in the @europeanspaceagency’s Neutral Buoyancy Facility for future spacewalks, you’ve all made impressive strides. Now, you can confidently step into your new role as #space explorers.
It’s been a pleasure working with each of you, and I look forward to our next adventures. But for now, enjoy your wings—you’ve earned them!
