      Astronauts have lots of different backgrounds and interests: some are geologists, others engineers or pilots and others lots more that I don’t even know! Some people choose to become an astronaut after being in the military too. They are all bright people who have worked hard to be really good at what they do. They all also have to go through a pretty tough selection process to be selected. Did you watch the TV programme on BBC a couple of years ago.
