    Matthias Maurer: training at NASA’s Johnson Space Center

    ** English and German subtitles are available for this clip under settings, subtitles/CC. **

    ESA astronaut Matthias Maurer travelled to Houston, USA for training at NASA’s Johnson Space Center. In this video he shares his first few weeks of refresher training, with a glimpse behind the scenes.

    Matthias travelled to Houston, USA from Europe with fellow ESA astronaut Thomas Pesquet. Thomas has flown to the International Space Station before, while Matthias is training for his first Space Station mission. Mission dates are yet to be confirmed, but as the next two ESA astronauts in line for flights, the pair are working to ensure they fully trained and ready.

    Due to the current situation with COVID-19, all personnel are required to adhere to special safety precautions while training. These include wearing a mask – as seen in the clip.

    Matthias will continue his training in Houston over the next weeks and months. Stay tuned for further footage of his training and experiences.

    “NASA Johnson Style” (“Gangnam Style” Parody)

    NASA astronauts and scientists are among those in this educational parody of Psy’s popular music video. “NASA Johnson Style” was created, written and produced by the Houston center’s co-op students who volunteered for the project ” to inform the public about the amazing work going on at NASA and the Johnson Space Center.”

    “NASA Johnson Style” lyrics:

    NASA Johnson Style
    Johnson Style

    Welcome to NASA’s Johnson Space Center
    We are coming in hot so don’t burn up as we enter
    We do science everyday that affects your daily life
    Throw them up for manned space flight

    Science everywhere
    As we engineer the marvels
    That fly though the air
    And take us way beyond earth’s levels

    Science everywhere
    Because we engineer the marvels
    That fly though the air
    Flys us through the air

    Control the mission out of Johnson
    This is ground, hey!
    And this is space, hey!
    Tell me Houston what’s the problem
    It’s okay!
    It’s okay!
    Because there’s flight controllers on the job today

    NASA Johnson STYLE!

    Orbiting earth, international space station
    Where we work and live in space with a crew from several nations
    Got Japanese, and Russians, that European charm
    Throw them up, like the Canada Arm

    Kicking out research
    29k cubic feet, revolves around the earth
    Science microgravity, revolves around the earth
    Columbus, JEM, and Destiny
    Kicking out research
    Kicking out research

    Train the astronauts at Johnson
    To go to space, hey!
    To go to space, hey!
    Cause the missions of tomorrow
    Start today, hey!
    Start today, hey!
    As we engineer the future day by day

    The Space Shuttle (Narrated by William Shatner)

    An idea born in unsettled times becomes a feat of engineering excellence. The most complex machine ever built to bring humans to and from space and eventually construct the next stop on the road to space exploration.
