Noun: The term for a Muslim spacefarer, comparable to "Astronaut", "Angkasawan", "Cosmonaut", "Taikonaut", etc. Derived from "Najm", the Arabic word for "Star".
Thanks to the Syrian Civil War - Muhammed Faris is the only Najmonaut, indeed the only astronaut ever, to have gone on to live as a refugee.
