suddenlycaptain | SPACE TRAINING

An idea born between Carolyn Fry and Ellen Ripley, Space Training is exactly what it sounds like: a class on various aspects of surviving in space, from general health tips to shuttle safety to how specific parts of the Tranquility work. As a safety measure in case she should disappear and to make sure the information is accessible to anyone who comes after the classes, Carolyn has recorded each session and compiled them for future reference.
