This is posted on the main page of space.com My question is about this part of the article.<br /><br />http://www.space.com/missionlaunches/ap_060208_exp13_pontes.html<br /><br /><b> The Brazilian, who will blast off from the Baikonur Cosmodrome in Kazakhstan with Russian astronaut Pavel Vinogradov and U.S cosmonaut Jeffrey Williams, will spend eight days on the International Space Station before returning to Earth with the outgoing two-man crew. </b><br /><br />Why does it call Jeffery Williams a Cosmonaut and Pavel Vinogradov an Astronaut? I read that and scratched my head.
