Description: Ever dreamed of being an astronaut and explore space or experience a space walk? With Astronaut VR you can prove your astronaut skills by mastering four distinct missions: Astronaut Training, Space Station Interior, Space Station EVA and Hubble EVA. Enjoy the view back to earth from 400km. We only have this lovely planet.




Review: Astronaut VR is a surprisingly good space life simulation with an approving nod to the impressive view from the Cupola ISS section. While it doesn’t look amazing the graphics and sound effect are more than good enough to make the environments you are placed in believable. Sadly it does have a few problems like the lack of content, but this games biggest problem is how real it is. Fact: Doing a spacewalk or floating around in space is very nauseating! Sadly Astronaut VR captures that nausea perfectly, but only because it is a good simulation of being in space! While there are only 4 locations to explore: Astronaut Pool, Space Station, ISS EVA and the Cupola Module you might have quit well before that because of nausea.
