Have you ever wondered how NASA astronauts can work in weightless space conditions? Because before leaving the earth they are trained in a very special large indoor pool of water, which is a life-size replica of the International Space Station (ISS).
The pool is located at Neutral Buoyancy Laboratory (NBL) in Houston. It is used by the astronauts to perform simulated tasks in preparation for upcoming missions.
Now, thanks to a new 360-degree YouTube video, you can get a sense of what it feels like to be trained like an astronaut. The stunning NASA VR/360 video offers three different perspectives of astronauts as they complete their simulated space-walk training.
