## The 5 Core Pillars of Space Training
1. **High-G Tolerance**: Anti-G straining maneuvers (AGSM) under +3G to +6G acceleration.
2. **Microgravity Adaptation**: Parabolic flight conditioning to prevent Space Motion Sickness (SMS).
3. **Hypoxia & Pressure Safety**: Altitude chamber training for rapid decompression awareness.
4. **Spacesuit Mobility**: Pressurized IVA/EVA dynamics and life-support umbilical handling.
5. **Crew Resource Management**: Team dynamics, emergency egress, and analog isolation endurance.
