weight and height have little to do with it.
I figure they'd want mature cool headed serious flyers.

perhaps around 30 - 35 would be the entry age.

suggestion. Join the Air Force and don't do any drugs.
thats always an easy way in.

Height between 58.5 and 76 inches. There doesn't seem to be a weight limit, but if you're seriously under or overweight you probably won't pass the medical; since NASA get so many applications, they can afford to turn down all but the most qualified candidates. Within limits I'd imagine the lighter the better, since each pound costs around $20,000 to put into orbit.

Note that there are likely to be more opportunities for trips into space with civil spaceflight companies like Virgin Galactic, but a ticket is going to cost a lot of money for the forseeable future.
