Many of us dream of becoming astronauts when we are kids, but only about 600 humans have achieved spaceflight. What does it take to make it into space? Do you have... the right stuff?

Hear what retired astronaut, engineer, fighter pilot, and singer(!) Chris Hadfield has said about his own experience with astronaut training.
