Han aprendido mucho sobre c\u00f3mo se vive y trabaja en el espacio. Algunas de esas misiones en el transbordador espacial estadounidense duraron un par de semanas. Otras misiones en la estaci\u00f3n espacial rusa Mir fueron m\u00e1s prolongadas y llegaron a durar varios meses.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>En 1998 se cre\u00f3 en Alemania el Centro Europeo de Astronautas (EAC, European Astronaut Centre) con el fin de preparar a los astronautas europeos para desempe\u00f1ar misiones en la Estaci\u00f3n Espacial Internacional (ISS). La mayor\u00eda de esos astronautas ya han volado en misiones a la Estaci\u00f3n. Son necesarios para manejar muchas partes de la ISS, entre ellas el gigantesco laboratorio cient\u00edfico llamado Columbus.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\" data-width=\"3002\" data-credit=\"NASA\" data-detail-url=\"https:\/\/www.esa.int\/ESA_Multimedia\/Images\/2010\/05\/Fuglesang_EVA2\" data-licence=\"ESA Standard Licence\" data-licence-url=\"https:\/\/www.esa.int\/ESA_Multimedia\/Terms_and_conditions_of_use_of_images_and_videos_available_on_the_esa_website\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" style=\"max-width:100%;height:auto\" src=\"https:\/\/www.esa.int\/var\/esa\/storage\/images\/esa_multimedia\/images\/2010\/05\/fuglesang_eva2\/17884398-2-eng-GB\/Fuglesang_EVA.jpg\" alt=\"\"><\/figure>\n<p>Tambi\u00e9n llevan a cabo experimentos cient\u00edficos en condiciones de ingravidez que ser\u00edan imposibles en la Tierra.
