I’m asking this because, I study in a High School in Bucharest, and I need some informations about what kind of educations or subjects I need so that I can work in International Space Station and stay for 6 months and days there( my dream)?



In the high school, I’m in Natural Protection, where we study how to protect the nature, and how things works in nature.



I have tried to find on Internet, but the result was unclear.



Questions:



  1. Can anyone tell me what subjects I need to fulfill so that I can work in NASA in ISS, and to stay 6 months and days and also to have missions to go outside of ISS?

  2. Why it is required to learn Russian language in ISS when English language is indeed an international language, and should be used English language in ISS? Because, really. ISS is an American spice station and not Soviet space station.

  3. And what are the steps for me to get hired in NASA and to be sent in ISS?

My only wish is to be somebody that works in ISS, and stay for 6 months and days, and to go outside of ISS for working. Because, I really wish to see Earth from space😍

I'm sorry but... It's likely impossible for you.



Romania is't an ISS partner, and don't have an astronaut corp, so assuming you have only the Romanina nationality there is currently no clear path for you.



You specifically mention NASA but.. NASA jobs are open to Americans only.



Moreoever, the ISS end of life might come in 2025, and assuming you need a few years to graduate, more to get a degree, work experience, get hired, do the training... The ISS might not exist at that point anymore.



However, if you are serious about it, you shouldn't give up hope of going to space. Access is getting cheaper and cheaper, and more opportunities will open! Lookup How to become a NASA astronaut and start working towards that goal. Maybe in a few years an opportunity will arise !

  • Do you have an idea that NASA will build a new ISS after the death of previous ISS? Or this is it? No more space stations?

Your question 2:

The ISS is an international station. The USA is the biggest contributor, but Russia and many other nations also contribute. You need to learn Russian because at the moment the Russian Soyuz capsule is the only vehicle that can transport people to the station, so everyone needs to know how the Soyuz works so they can operate the capsule in an emergency.



As Antzi says, it'd be a long and difficult road to get hired by NASA as an astronaut. Fortunately, several companies are working on their own manned space programs (for example, SpaceX and Boeing) so in a few years, there may be other ways to get into space.
