Euronews Tech Talks

Daniel Tani spent over 130 days in space, most of which were on the International Space Station (ISS), and he conducted six extra-vehicular activities, also known as space walks. As a child, he did not want to become an astronaut, but life and career choices got him into orbit as a NASA astronaut.

Tani sits down with Euronews Tech Talks to share his experience as an astronaut, his thoughts on the current situation in space, the future of the ISS and how to enter the space sector.
