anik - 18/5/2008 5:21 PM Annoyingly? No, at all! In Russia the selection of candidates for cosmonauts is not public process. It is the closed selection, which is conducting only from Russian Air Force, RSC Energia and IMBP, so requirements are known only to people from them. There is no need of publishing these data openly for "outsiders", because "outsiders" can not be selected.
Would the requirements be much the same as for NASA pilots (good eyesight, lots of flying hours, be in a certain height range)?
