Sailors of the Sky

They've fixed the Russian computers on the Space Station! I was starting to get worried.

By the way, how come we still can't agree on whether space travelers are Cosmonauts or Astronauts? The cold war lives on in terminology disagreements.

What if someone else - like the Euros - finally succeed in launching people into space? Will they go with Cosmo or Astro? Or will they feel entitled to coin yet another word ending in -naut?

Although we diverge on the start,
We agree on the ending part.

So perhaps we really ought
To just cut it down to "Naut".
