Description: Briefing ESA astronauts Samantha Cristoforetti and Matthias Maurer joined Chinese colleagues in Yantai, China to take part in sea survival training, on 14 August 2017.
Returning from space in a Chinese capsule, astronauts need to be prepared for any eventuality – including landing in the sea. Water survival is a staple of all astronaut training but this is the first time non-Chinese astronauts have taken part.
