Great idea. Would it still be true that the most dangerous thing in the universe is a 2 Lieutenant with a star map and a compass?

Aeronauts: That said, I do believe, just as in all SciFi shows, that the ranking system should follow that of the U.S. Navy..

Whether it is a waterborne or spaceborne ship, they are still ships so it seems appropriate that the ranking structure should follow our naval traditions.

Since they're breaking from the air force using navy traditions seems like a no go.

In that case "Seaman" (lol), "Airman" so "Spaceman" would be appropriate.

What space-borne ships? Any military astronauts are called “astronauts”
