Sally Ride trained for over a year before becoming an astronaut. She was selected as part of NASA's astronaut class in 1978 and underwent extensive training in various aspects of spaceflight, including space shuttle systems, spacewalking, and emergency procedures. This training period was crucial in preparing her for her historic space missions, including becoming the first American woman in space in 1983.
Sally Ride became interested in space while studying at Stanford University. After seeing an advertisement in the student newspaper, Ride applied for NASA's astronaut program and was selected in 1978, becoming the first American woman in space in 1983.
Buzz Aldrin went to train at NASA
Neil Armstrong trained to be an astronaut at NASA's Langley Research Center in Virginia and later at the Johnson Space Center in Houston, Texas. He participated in various programs, including flight training and simulations, to prepare for his missions. Armstrong also gained valuable experience as a test pilot before joining the astronaut program.
Honestly, decades. Even before he was an astronaut, he had years of training as a civilian pilot, then a military pilot, then a test pilot--all of these experiences helped in various ways to his selection by NASA as an astronaut. Neil became an astronaut in the early 1960's; of course this training helped specifically. It was probably around 1967 when all Apollo astronauts began generalized training for lunar missions; and then specific training for any particular mission, a year or more.
It typically takes 2-5 years to become an astronaut, including training in areas such as spacewalks, robotics, and languages. The specific duration can vary depending on the individual's background and the requirements of the space agency.

3 to 4 years
where did John Glenn train give me the location
No u do not need to go up into space to be an astronaut. Actually many astronauts train and train but don't get to go up in space.
they need to train in lots of zero gravity and engineering
Buzz Aldrin went to train at NASA
Wagon Train - 1957 The Sally Potter Story 1-28 was released on: USA: 9 April 1958
It takes about 8 years to train for one mission. This is not training to be an astronaut, its training just for one mission. Example: It took 8 year for Reberta Bondar to train for a mission that took 8 days.

8 hrs a week
Sally Pearson trains 6 times a week. She does 5 track sessions as well as some gym and pool:-)
Nothing! Just be a good scientist! Simple as that!
