Talk:Norman Thagard

Thagard
Is it appropriate to refer Norman Thagard as the the first American cosmonaut? Gordomono (talk) 22:50, 5 August 2009 (UTC)
 * A lot of people do. This is mentioned in the main Astronaut article. If the way to differentiate between the two terms is in the origin of the space vehicle the person traveled on, then yes, he is indeed the first "American cosmonaut." Jsc1973 (talk) 12:43, 7 August 2009 (UTC)
