How to get padi Space suit diver specialty?

[Fishdip]

So was looking at all the random “certifications” you can get with padi and one of them is space suit diver. But I can not find any info on how you get it?

There are two kinds of specialties, those offered by PADI and those offered by individual instructors who have developed a specialty and gotten it approved by PADI as meeting certain standards; these instructor specialties are called "distinctive" specialties. There are probably many hundreds of them, usually taught only by the author. There is no available list of them.

Where did you see it mentioned?

Thanks. This is from some dive shop in Thailand. My guess is it was compiled by web searching. It also contains a number of actual PADI specialties that are not "distinctive."

Not me in the picture, but I wouldn't bet against those astronauts getting that cert. Perhaps look around for a space camp that has realistic training.
