People who have travelled in space are called astronauts or cosmonauts.
The Russians called their spacemen "cosmonauts". The US used "astronauts", meaning sailors of the stars. Cosmonauts means sailors of the universe. Both are pretty grandiose for people who haven't even passed Luna's orbit.
Zero. Only the US has landed any humans on the moon.
Russian astronauts are called "cosmonauts" because the term derives from the Greek words "kosmos," meaning "universe," and "nautes," meaning "sailor" or "traveler." This nomenclature was adopted during the Soviet space program to reflect the exploration of outer space. The distinction between "astronaut" and "cosmonaut" highlights the cultural and historical context of space travel in Russia compared to other countries.
As of October 2021, the crew aboard the International Space Station (ISS) is composed of seven astronauts: three Russian cosmonauts, two American astronauts, and two astronauts from the European Space Agency.
