astronaut (EN)
ISCO 3153 · v1.2.1
Astronauts are crew members commanding spacecrafts for operations beyond low Earth orbit or higher than the regular altitude reached by commercial flights. They orbit the Earth in order to perform operations such as scientific research and experiments, launching or release of satellites, and building of space stations.
Classification skills are not a measurement of your proficiency or future displaced hours.
