Tim Peake's Space Project for Primary Schools

We have signed up to take part in a Space Science project next term. What do astronauts need to know and what do they need to be able to do as part of their training?

What have astronauts discovered about soils and rocks from other planets?

 How do astronauts keep hydrated in Space?

Meteorites and craters...what can we find out by scientific investigation?

 Train like an astronaut....wear thick gardening gloves to carry out basic tasks like changing batteries in a torch or pressing buttons on a calculator. Is this what it was like for Tim Peake?
