Congratulations!

You type in the code and press enter. A green light appears and there’s a faint beep… the door to the escape pod swings open! You strap yourself in and blast back to Earth…

You have answered every question correctly and successfully escaped the International Space Station – great job!

We’re really pleased you got involved in the activity. If you have any time we’d really appreciate you taking a couple of minutes to filling in this feedback form. It’s completely optional, but will let us know what you liked and didn’t like, and will help us improve the activity. Thank you!

We’d also love it if you let us know you escaped – email or tweet ‘I escaped!’ to our twitter or email ([email protected]). Can’t wait to hear from you!

To help you imagine what it’s really like leaving the International Space Station, here’s a video of astronaut Tim Peake leaving on the Soyuz spacecraft (there isn’t actually a dedicated ‘escape pod’, but it’s the Soyuz spacecraft astronauts use to leave the ISS):

Thanks for doing this activity!
