>If your country has not had a cosmonaut BY ITSELF it's pretty much a non-country.

I'm pretty sure that map should have only Russia and maybe the US. After all, without russian rockets or the first US rockets no other nation could go to space.

Germany is the only country that sent Astronauts and Kosmonauts into space.

If they fix their problems they won't get billions in foreign aid though. Better build some shitty rockets to boost your ego.

An astronaut or cosmonaut is a person trained by a human spaceflight program to command, pilot, or serve as a crew member of a spacecraft. Although generally reserved for professional space travelers, the terms are sometimes applied to anyone who travels into space, including scientists, politicians, journalists, and tourists.[1][2]

I'm aware of that, but germans aren't russians
>>72012041
But russia is no longer communist yet they still call their *nauts cosmonauts

>>72012111
This is just cryptonautish for astronaut.
Russia can't into Kosmos anymore only Astro.

>>72012111
It´s a difference in etymology kiddo.
Cosmos is universe. and naut is sailor.
