Certified Not or Qualified Naut?



TheStar reported that they are Certified as Cosmonauts.

Was there any document issued by the Russian Space Agency (Roskosmos) that certify them?

Or, Certified means mere acceptance or acknowledgment?





NST said they were Qualified Cosmonauts as verified by Jamaluddin Jarjis.

Is Qualified same as Certified?

Wasn't there a standard procedure, rules and regulation to verify a Qualification?




Reggie asked: Can or Not?




The Mission in Space?

To make teh tarik (seriously)?

Seriously?

Just one simple question for the Malaysian 'kelapa-naut'(coconut): Supposing the other 5 cosmonauts happened to be incapacitated during launch, do you possess the capability to dock the craft with the ISS?

If yes, you really are a cosmonaut.

If no, take off your helmet and replace it with your underpants.

"QUALIFIED" - holding appropriate documentation and officially on record as qualified to perform a specified function or practice a specified skill.

From wiki...

An astronaut or cosmonaut ( from russia or formerly soviet union )is a person trained by a human spaceflight program to command, pilot, or serve as a crew member of a spacecraft.

While generally reserved for professional space travelers, the term is sometimes applied to anyone who travels into space, including scientists, politicians, journalists, and tourists.

So, its a fact that he is a qualified cosmonaut cos... in record we send him as a SPACE TOURIST & nothing else.

By hook or by crook, Malaysia wanted to send the first Muslim into space. Even if just to make teh tarik there.

The Americans are laughing their heads off, anyway. Cosmonauts or coconauts, this is the obsessed leadership yearning for some mental orgasm even if it costs taxpayers ringgit. I hope the PM will get his orgasm watching it. For once he won't be asleep.

spending a whopping rm80m on a raya joyride in space and...

when there are probably thousands who can't even afford to have a decent hari raya.

this is not only inconsiderate but down right sinful.

Even if they are cosmonauts, it still doesn't justify why we need to spend all those money to send someone to space. What did we prove? There's nothing to prove.

We don't have the technology. What's the point?

I have an idea, just pay the Ruskies a few hundred thousand roubles extra and get them to certify that Malaysia is a "joint-venture partner" for the mision.

First Muslim in space was Prince Sultan aboard the space shuttle in 1985. At least he had a skillset - a payload specialist to deploy satellites. Our angkasawan's skillset? Hmmmmm ...

Anyway 20yrs on, what has Saudi Arabia gained? Possibly zilch, and Prince Sultan is now the Minister of Tourism.

If Sheikh Muszaphar Shukor is defined or insisted to be called a cosmonaunt, then the implication can be widespread. Why and how? Can you rationalise a bus with 45 "drivers" and only one passenger? One passenger? Yes, the one holding the steering wheel of the bus must be "irrationalized" as the passenger even though he is steering!! yes, a bus with 45 "drivers" and only one passenger. And it goes on and on......one boeing plane with 270 "pilots" and only 5 passengers in the cockpit!! Ha, haaaaa....!!

Madness of course, this is "political masturbation" to its peak orgasm. Malaysian style!!

Why not send up a camel to the ISS too? So that Sheikh Muszaphar Shukor can be the first muslim to ride a camel in space

Being a passenger, this Sheikh speaks about his "heavy responsibilities" in CNN. Whata farce.
