Knowledge

There isn't a single astronaut who knows everything about the spacecraft he flies or rides.

Astronauts are continuously in touch with the ground for so many things! Even opening the ISS doors requires a thorough checklist reading.

I wonder about the russians, though..There are far fewer systems and they have a small vehicle.
Russians learn by taking notes while Americans have everything written in papers.
