Astronaut
The pinnacle of Air Force training and experience is that of an Astronaut. As an Astronaut, you will command space shuttle missions, pilot the space shuttle, perform on-orbit duties, operate DoD payloads and provide manned space flight consultation to DoD activities and other government agencies. The command of space shuttle missions requires the operation of all shuttle vehicle systems. As an Astronaut, you will serve as an integral part of onboard flight operations by operating and reconfiguring orbiter systems during flight phases. You will also be responsible for monitoring the payload shuttle interface and performing extra-vehicular activity to accomplish repair, refurbishment or inspection of satellites in orbit in payload bay.
All Air Force career fields are based on qualifications and job availability.
