Stats[edit]

Out of curiosity, does the Chinese government list his height and weight?

From here: "翟志刚副师职、上校军衔，二级航天员。1966年10月出生，身高172厘米，体重65公斤，黑龙江省龙江县人，本科学历（双学士）原空军某试训中心飞行教员，飞行时间950小时。1998年1月入选航天员，2003年、2005年曾入选神舟五号、神舟六号飞行候补航天员"

Taikonaut[edit]

Use "astronaut" or "taikonaut"? Since all Russian "astronauts" are recognised as "cosmonauts" on Wikipedia, I think this article should follow suit with the generally accepted use of terms depending on country of origin, as seen in the media et cetera. -- 李博杰 | —Talk contribs 05:35, 27 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

This English language article does use the generally accepted English term for space traveler - astronaut. See Talk:Astronaut for all the details. Rillian (talk) 18:05, 29 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
