List of space travelers by name

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

This is an alphabetical list of all space travelers, people who have flown in space.

Names in italic are space travelers that have left Low Earth orbit, names in bold are are space travelers that have walked on the moon. A * next to a name indicates that the person died during spaceflight.

The criteria for determining who has achieved human spaceflight vary. The FAI defines spaceflight as any flight over 100 kilometres (62 miles). In the United States, professional, military, and commercial astronauts who travel above an altitude of 80 kilometres (50 miles) are awarded astronaut wings. People who died training for space travel or died during missions that failed to reach the required altitude such as Christa McAuliffe can be found in the article on space disasters.

As of December 31, 2006, a total of 448 humans from 37 countries have gone into space according to the FAI guideline, while 454 people qualify under the U.S. definition. Of those totals, 444 people have reached Earth orbit or beyond[citation needed] and 24 people have completely left the Earth's orbit. Space travelers have spent over 29,000 person-days (or a cumulative total of over 77 years) in space including over 100 person-days of spacewalks.[1]
