Previous Chinese Born Astronauts

A big surprise to me.

from http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/sci/tech/2829349.stm

"US astronaut Shannon Lucid was born in Shanghai and has completed five space shuttle flights. Taylor Gun-Jin Wang was also born in Shanghai in 1940 and became an American citizen in 1975 and has flown on the space shuttle once."

They failed to mention Shannon's months on Mir and her deflation of the 0 g dragon.
