A pioneer is someone who is first to do something, particularly things like going to new places. The first astronauts are pioneers as they were the first people to go into space. Since then there have been many firsts for many astronauts, like first space walks, first orbit to the moon, first visit to the moon and so on. Astronauts continue to do new things and become the first people to do them. As long as space exploration continues to develop, there will always be pioneers amongst the astronauts.
