The Canadian Astronaut program began in 1983 with the selections of Roberta Bondar, Marc Garneau, Robert Thirsk, Kenneth Money, Bjarni Tryggvason, and Steve MacLean.
Garneau was the first Canadian to fly in space, aboard Challenger STS-41G in 1984.
The second Canadian astronaut was Dr. Roberta Bondar. Selected as part of NASA's Space Shuttle program in 1984, she became the first Canadian woman in space when she flew on the Space Shuttle Discovery during the STS-42 mission in January 1992. Bondar is a neurologist and has made significant contributions to both science and space exploration.
Marc Garneau became an astronaut and went into space as part of the Canadian Space Agency's astronaut program. He was selected for space missions due to his background as an engineer, military pilot, and experience as a scientist, making him a qualified candidate for space exploration.
Marc Garneau accomplished his career milestones by excelling in academics and obtaining advanced degrees in engineering. He then entered the Canadian Space Program and became the first Canadian astronaut to travel in space. Garneau's dedication, passion, and skills in space exploration led to a successful career as an astronaut, politician, and Minister of Transport.
The first African Canadian astronaut was Dr. Roberta Bondar. She flew on the Space Shuttle Discovery in 1992, becoming the first neurologist in space and the first Canadian woman to travel to space.

The famous Canadian associated with the Space Shuttle program is Chris Hadfield. He is an astronaut who flew on two Space Shuttle missions and later became the first Canadian to command the International Space Station (ISS). Hadfield is well-known for his social media presence and musical performances in space, which helped popularize space exploration.

The space for any standing point begins exactly at the four dimenstions where it is located.
That is now impossible. To become an astronaut, you have to be admitted to their Astronaut Training Program.
