Dedicated to the history of space exploration, this museum features exhibits on Soviet and Russian space programs, including artifacts.
Training Facilities
Training facilities are centers where astronauts undergo rigorous training and simulations to prepare for space missions. These facilities provide environments that simulate the conditions of space, including zero gravity, vacuum chambers, and underwater training for extravehicular activities. Prominent training facilities include NASA’s Neutral Buoyancy Laboratory, the European Astronaut Centre (EAC) in Germany, and Russia’s Gagarin Cosmonaut Training Center.
