Japanaut?
Apparently inspired by the success of China's Shenzhou V manned spaceflight, Japan is considering developing its own manned space program. Currently, the nation does have astronauts, which have flown for about a decade aboard NASA Shuttles, and has completed an ISS module which is currently at KSC awaiting launch. No time frame has been given, but a new policy is expected to be developed by mid-year.
