This dimension groups astronauts by the year they were born, showing which generation of spaceflight they belong to. Wikipedia notes that "as of April 2026, 781 humans have flown in space," a population spanning many decades of birth years from the earliest Soviet and American astronauts onward. Browsing by birth year lets a visitor compare astronauts of the same generation.
