In this article, it is not clear that spaceflight participant is "astronaut" or not. ("not a astronaut" means "a tourist"?)
And if it means not, why are "Sheikh Muszaphar Shukor" and "Yi So-yeon" in the list? They are not different from other "first astronauts" of countries.
They selected among applicants, trained in other country, sent to the space by other country's spacecraft, performed experiment in the space.
I think its definition should be more clear, and delete "Sheikh" and "Yi" from the list OR add all the astronauts sent to the space in similar way.
