Going into space is dangerous. A fair number of astronauts and cosmonauts have died during space missions and others have face with life-threatening situations. Astronauts go into space knowing that even a seemingly minor malfunction could prove fatal.
Has astronauts been to earth?
As far as has been made public, all astronauts of any country have been trained on earth, began their space missions on earth, and returned to earth at the conclusion of their missions. Astronauts have died during launch or re-entry. None have been lost or died in space. So the answer to the question is: Yes, 100%, every known astronaut has been to earth. In fact, if you want to round things off, every astronaut has spent approximately 100% of his life on the earth, and approximately zero in space.

Has anyone ever died after returning from space?
No. Americans have died on the way up or the way back (both Space Shuttle missions) and some died in training (Mercury) also some Soviets have died on re-entry but none have died "in-space." The most dangerous parts of space flight are like airplane flights- take off and landing.

Do all astrounuats die before returning to earth?
No. Only a few astronauts have died in the line of duty, and very few (and no Americans) have died in space. The most dangerous part of any space journey is the launch and the landing. Three American astronauts were killed in a fire in the capsule on the launch pad during testing before Apollo 1. Seven astronauts were killed when space shuttle Challenger was destroyed during launch, and seven astronauts were killed when the shuttle Columbia disintegrated over Texas during re-entry. At least a few astronauts were killed in aircraft accidents. We believe that the Russians lost a couple of astronauts in space, but this has never been admitted. Several Russian astronauts have died during re-entry or during the landing.

There are rumors of a number of fatal Soviet space accidents which were hushed-up as secret missions.
