An astronaut is an individual trained and equipped to command or crew a spacecraft, typically through a formal human spaceflight program. While the term usually denotes professional space travelers, it's sometimes broadened to include anyone venturing into space, such as scientists, politicians, journalists, and space tourists. Astronauts play critical roles in space exploration, scientific research, and the advancement of space-related technologies.
