A person who has traveled in space (altitude of at least 80 - 100 km) is called an astronaut, cosmonaut (Russian), taikonaut (Chinese), or afronaut (Africans). The titles derive from the Greek astro (star), kosmos (universe) and nautes (sailor). Posters of space missions and exploration include Yuri Gagarin, Alan Shepard, and John Glenn.
