Samantha Cristoforetti has developed a huge following through her TikToks from on board the ISS.
Cristoforetti believes that within the next decade more people will be travelling beyond Earth's atmosphere.
But back within the boundaries of Earth, Cristoforetti has some words of advice for aspiring astronauts. During a recent campaign to select a new class of astronauts, there was a conscious effort to "reach out to young women to make sure the pool of applicants... was [as] diverse as possible". "It's especially a good idea to study a stem subject - science, technology, engineering and maths - even medicine, and then find a way into the industry."Cristoforetti, with colleague Jaime Amor, has been practising yoga moves
