first you need your ppl,and then instrument and muti engine time,instructor and test pilot ratings
type rating in varios piston and jet engine aircraft,airobatic time wont hurt,then apply for and get accepted into,whoops,a couple of masters degrees a phd ,and then reapply,get accep ted into
thd space program,do timd in varios 0 g training
and then,they will show you a space suit,not of course an active duty suit,which is custom made to fit....
> If these procedures sound easy to you, imagine that on the ground, the astronauts put on their suits and equipment with the assistance of technicians and it took them a little more than an hour. Now, imagine doing this inside the habitable volume of an Apollo spacecraft or a lunar module with one or two other humans alongside you trying to do the same thing.
lol.. yea.. but you're nearly weightless when you do so. Which makes it easier and harder at the same time. One of the upshots is you can put both legs of your pants on at the same time, and if you attach the suit to the wall, you can more or less just "stand up" into it.
I highly recommend this documentary about the spacesuit…

The whole moon machines series is fantastic.
or How do you put on a Sokol spacesuit? https://samlogbook-ru.livejournal.com/57444.html
Basically: "First you put on the cooling garment, then you wriggle into the spacesuit, which is hard. Then you zip it up with a long extension cable."
Not that detailed.

I'm torn between two responses:
#1 - "So you're saying there's a chance!?"
#2 - something something "the right stuff"

No idea. The last time I tried it I was thrown out of the Smithsonian before I got anywhere in the process.
