Astronaut Word Search, free printable PDF preview

Becoming an astronaut takes years of training before a single launch. Crews ride up inside a capsule, then join a station by docking with a waiting module. Once there, everything floats, since being in constant free fall makes a person feel weightless. Stepping outside for a spacewalk means sealing into a spacesuit with a helmet and gold tinted visor for protection. Every mission is planned to the minute. This word puzzle gathers eleven of those terms.

Frequently asked questions

Why is a visor needed in this astronaut word search?

The gold coated VISOR on a HELMET filters intense sunlight, which is unfiltered by any atmosphere outside the spacecraft.

Why does everything float in space?

A spacecraft and its crew are falling around Earth together, so nothing presses against the floor. That is what WEIGHTLESS means.
