P.S.
Care este diferenta dintre cosmonauti si astronauti ?
Cei de la Oxford zic asa:
cosmonaut - noun - an astronaut from the former Soviet Union
Word Origin 1950s: from cosmos, on the pattern of astronaut and Russian kosmonavt.

De pe wikipedia:
By convention, an astronaut employed by the Russian Federal Space Agency (or its Soviet predecessor) is called a cosmonaut in English texts. The word is an anglicisation of the Russian word kosmonavt (Russian: &#1082;&#1086;&#1089;&#1084;&#1086;&#1085;&#1072;&#1074;&#1090;), one who works in space outside the Earth's atmosphere, a space traveler, which derives from the Greek words kosmos (&#954;&#972;&#963;&#956;&#959;&#962;), meaning "universe", and nautes (&#957;&#945;&#973;&#964;&#951;&#962;), meaning "sailor". Other countries of the former Eastern Bloc use variations of the Russian word kosmonavt, such as the Polish kosmonauta.

Coinage of the term kosmonavt has been credited to Soviet aeronautics pioneer Mikhail Tikhonravov (1900&#8211;1974).
