NASA picks 12 new astronauts from crush of applicants
CAPE CANAVERAL,
Fla. (AP) — NASA chose 12
new astronauts Wednesday
from its biggest pool of
applicants
ever,
hand-
picking seven men and five
women who could one day
fly aboard the nation’s next
generation of spacecraft.
The astronaut class of
2017 includes doctors,
scientists, engineers, pilots
and military officers from
Anchorage to Miami and
points in between. They’ve
worked in submarines,
emergency rooms, univer-
sity lecture halls, jet cock-
pits and battleships. They
range in age from 29 to 42,
and they typically have led
the pack.
Vice President Mike
Pence welcomed the group
during a televised ceremony
at NASA’s Johnson Space
Center in Houston. He
offered President Donald
Trump’s
congratulations
and noted that the president
is “firmly committed to
NASA’s noble mission,
leading America in space.”
Pence assured the crowd
that NASA will have the
resources
and
support
necessary to continue to
make history. He said he
would lead a resurrected

help set the direction of the
program.
Under Trump, “America
will lead in space once
again, and the world will
marvel,” Pence said.
More than 18,300 people
threw their hats into the
space ring during a brief
application period 1 ½
years ago. That’s more than
double the previous record
of 8,000 set in 1978, when
from home soil since 2011,
when the space shuttles
were retired, thus the low
head count. Americans have
been hitching rides aboard
Russian spacecraft in the
meantime.
the space shuttles were close
to launching.

astronauts already in the
