Astronaut costumes are a great option for Halloween if you have a kid who dreams of being an astronaut.

Or perhaps you're after an astronaut costume for yourself, should you be heading to a fancy dress party this year.

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 carrying out cool science experiments and going to the toilet in zero gravity.

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.

But we can still dream, right?!

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.

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

Below is a selection of some of the best astronaut costumes available online for Halloween or for fancy dress parties.

If you do fancy testing your astronaut aptitude, see how you get on with Tim Peake's astronaut tests.

Best astronaut costumes

Aeromax Adult Astronaut Suit

When it comes to selecting an astronaut costume, most of us are probably going to be on the lookout for an endorsed NASA replica, complete with embroidered NASA logo and commander patch.

This astronaut costume from Aeromax Toys fits the bill, and is available in women’s as well and men’s fit, in orange or white.

It also features multiple zip pockets and comes with a matching NASA cap, making this a good option for those after a more realistic costume to wear to star parties or spaceflight and astronomy conferences.

Bodysocks Inflatable Astronaut Costume

At the other end of the astronaut costume spectrum is this rather silly but fun inflatable space suit for adults. It features a battery-operated fan that inflates the costume without the need for huffing and puffing. All you need to do is step into the costume, pull up the zip, flick the switch and it inflates around you.

It is worth noting, however, that 4 x AA batteries are required to operate the fan, and these are not included with the suit. Nevertheless, this is the sort of costume that would work well for stag and hen dos, as well as Halloween and fancy dress parties.

Orange Astronaut Jumpsuit

This astronaut costume from Halloween Costumes features a front zipper, embroidered patches, false pockets and vertical zippers on the trouser cuffs to enable them to expand over boots.

Astronaut costume in orange, white or blue
