UK astronaut Major Tim Peake training underwater

The UK's first official astronaut, Major Tim Peake, has been training underwater to prepare him for space.

He's heading to the International Space Station for a mission next year.

Major Peake is training at the European Astronaut Centre in Germany, where he's using a pool to try and experience what it's like to work in zero gravity.
