- Source: List of Asian astronauts
This is a list of astronauts, who are in a restricted sense, Asians.
If "Asian" is restricted to refer to people from the continent of Asia, exclusive of Asian Russia and Turkey, who are not of predominantly European, African, or American ancestry, then the list is as follows:
The first country listed is that of citizenship; the second, if any, is that of the Asian country of birth and/or ancestry, where different. Those of Asian ancestry but were born outside Asia are excluded.
The table lists astronauts whose origin or ancestry is in Central, East, South, Southeast, and West Asia.
