Definition of the word: Uninaughts

Uninaughts - A form of space-farer not unlike an astronaught, but equally not also unlike a cosmonaught. A term used to ubiquitously describe governmentally sponsored space-farers after the time when private space travel overtook the tax-payer paid variety. A term used to match the excitement used for New Terra’s first global space station, the glorious bemonikered “International Space Station”… because if you’ve got a space station with a name that grand, you need a label for your zero-G, zero-A frontiersmen sufficiently exciting to match… and focus groups gave birth to the brilliance of the name Uninaughts.
