Few fly to space, but hundreds of thousands work for it on Earth: rocket and satellite engineers, onboard software programmers, flight controllers, astrophysicists, space doctors, suit designers. In Europe that is ESA — astronaut centre in Cologne, mission control in Darmstadt. The real road to space starts with physics and maths.
- ●Rocket engineer: physics + maths + design
- ●Satellite programmer: code that must never crash
- ●Flight controller: steers probes from Earth
- ●Astrophysicist: studies stars, planets, black holes
