In this thrilling episode of Supercar Blondie, we witness the intense world of astronaut training, where only the elite 0.1% make the cut for NASA's space missions. The stakes are high, with a jaw-dropping $10 million price tag for training each astronaut and a mind-boggling $250 million cost for a single space suit. Our fearless host embarks on a journey to Trento, Italy, to experience the bone-rattling G forces of a fighter jet, providing a taste of the extreme conditions astronauts face during rocket takeoffs.

Transitioning to Connecticut, USA, Supercar Blondie explores the neutral buoyancy lab's underwater training, simulating the weightlessness of space to prepare astronauts for the challenges of zero gravity. The meticulous training regimen includes over 100 hours of underwater practice in full space suits, ensuring that astronauts are well-equipped for spacewalks and other extravehicular activities. Former astronaut Greg Johnson sheds light on the grueling nature of training, emphasizing the importance of expertise in various areas while maintaining focus and technical precision.

As the episode unfolds, Supercar Blondie delves into the dangers of space radiation and its profound impact on astronauts' bodies, from muscle and bone effects to the risk of developing serious conditions like cancer and heart disease. The intricate features and staggering costs of space suits are also unveiled, with a single suit priced at a staggering $250 million. The high-octane action continues as our intrepid host undergoes simulated splashdown training, mastering escape procedures in a water landing scenario and a high-altitude ejection in a space suit, offering viewers a heart-pounding glimpse into the life of an astronaut in training.
