Disqualifications, that I know:

1. No Russian citizenship
2. Age

Additional disqualifications:

Oleg:
3o. Must work 3 years on the same job

Marianna:
3. Weight (must be over 50 kg = 110.2 lb)

PT (Physical Training) doesn't appear to be a problem. For example, I can do 15 pull-ups and 40 dips. Intellect, education, personality and moral qualities pass.

Nor can either of us be an astronaut:

Disqualifications:
- Vision
- Don't have 1000 hours in jet aircraft (commander and pilot only)

Marianna additionally fails height test for an pilot (must be at least 62in = 157cm), but passes for a mission specialist (>58.5 in = 148.59 centimeters)
