TERRESTRIAL ASTRONAUTS
The film follows four test subjects on their journey through a European Space Agency medical study. During the eight-week resting phase, they make their bodies available in simulated weightlessness for numerous scientific tests. Physical and psychological strength are prerequisites for this extraordinary situation, which the individual test subjects experience very differently.
