The Canadian Space Agency has released a short video of the 10 years of preparation by astronaut David Saint-Jacques for his six month mission to the International Space Station (ISS).

That mission is scheduled to start with a launch on a Soyuz rocket from Kazakhstan on December 3, 2018 at 6:31 am ET.

Saint-Jacques isn’t just a passenger on the six hour flight to the ISS, he has a critical role to play as the flight co-pilot.

You can watch the launch live on SpaceQ.
