Marcus Wandt became the second astronaut from Sweden to be selected by ESA. He will first talk about his background and how he became an ESA reserve astronaut, including explanation of the detailed selection process. He will continue with ESA´s future human space program, with possible missions to ISS and new LEO space stations as well as the Lunar Gateway and landings on the Moon.
