The work of a cosmonaut is closely related to vocational occupations. It was actually considered as one before because you have to control a spacecraft and maintain its systems and work. As a cosmonaut, you should know how to work with your hands at the same time as using your head. This is exactly what young professionals will do while getting ready and competing at WorldSkills Kazan 2019.
