Astronaut costumes are a great option for Halloween if you have a kid who dreams of being an astronaut.<\/p>

Or perhaps you’re after an astronaut costume for yourself, should you be heading to a fancy dress party this year.<\/p>

As children, our young minds are fascinated by the idea that there are grown-ups whose job it is to be strapped into a rocket and blasted into space, where they spend time floating around in the International Space Station<\/a> carrying out cool science experiments and going to the toilet in zero gravity.<\/p>

Of course the reality is that the path to being an astronaut likely involves a stint in the airforce followed by rigorous training, learning Russian and going under the microscope as scientists attempt to work out the longterm effects of radiation and bone deterioration on the human body.<\/p>

But we can still dream, right?!<\/p>

When Halloween comes around again or whenever a fancy dress party is lurking on the horizon, an astronaut costume is perhaps the closest many of us will get to ever being an spacefarer.<\/p>

Astronaut costumes come in lots of different varieties, from inflatable ones to realistic NASA replicas and, of course, astronaut costumes for kids.<\/p>

Below is a selection of some of the best astronaut costumes available online for Halloween or for fancy dress parties.<\/p>
