Note. The numerical superiority of the Americans who visited the ISS is due to the fact that the American Space Shuttle was able to take more people on board at a time than the Russian manned spacecraft Soyuz . In addition, it was with the help of shuttles that the Americans delivered equipment and cargo to the station, while Russia used and uses automatic unmanned transport vehicles (“ Progress ”) for the same purpose. Thus, most Americans who visited the station stayed there for a short period of time, consisting of shuttle crews delivering cargo to the ISS or participants in long-term expeditions.
