Astronauts Answer 50 of the Most Googled Space Questions | WIRED

[annikazara]

i love how instead of answering one by one they just decide to sound incoherent altogether

[seed]

*how to become an astronaut*
Others: (mutters some requirements and science)
That one guy: GET LUCKY

[minatotmh]

Chris Hadfield is like the classmate who knows all the answers but only talks when nobody knows

[pulunavaea]

3:19 the way most of them immediately answered synonymously got me 💀

[karlhelmerich]

“What is the temperature in outer space?” Astronaut: “Cold.”

[ken_zaire]

"ASTRONAUTS BEING CHAOTIC FOR FOUR MINUTES AND FORTY NINE SECONDS"

[tzmkzpl]

I love how they’re just straightforward with their answers no more explanations needed

[DanielTompkinsGuitar]

2:36 he’s not wrong. Since Mars can be seen without a telescope, it definitely was “discovered” before recorded history. Being the first known civilization to write about it doesn’t mean it was discovered first by them.

[SuperT]

“What does orbit mean”
Everyone: go around
The one guy:

[arian]

“how do you become an astronaut”
chris: “hard wo-
“luck”

[nafisashireenshah]

How much money do astronaut make?
Everyone in sync🗣️: NOT ENOUGH. 💀

[Asanfilms]

I love how Chris’s answers are more pleasing and motivational than all others, it clearly shows off his media experience.

[binitishetty]

this video is literally just
1. chaos
2. *ding*
and boy do i love it.

[erickamendoza]

“when can you see mars”

“at night”

what a thought, astronaut

[ashhumpterfumpershire]

I had a smile on my face all throughout the video. I love their energy! I admire them so much <3

[kritinishad]

I'm impressed by the enthusiasm they have in them and we merely entered our 20s and already lost it. But seeing them definitely boosted me 😀

[divyeshmirajkar]

This is the perfect example of "we reach at a point where we do not care" type interview.

[unicorn]

"Is there life on Mars?"
"There will be once we get there".
Best answer of em all.

[ebony]

I love how everyone is just talking over each other trying to answer the questions or even just to read them out loud. It's so wholesome. Thank you 💜

[alltheleaveswerebrown]

Ten seconds in this is already my new favorite astronaut video. Love seeing how excited they all are talking about their passsion!
