Please don't flame me if this has been addressed before - I just
couldn't find it.
Is it just a coincidence that astronauts happen to be hams or do they
have to become hams as part of their training? I ask because of how it
seems as though all of them are.

Thanks,

Well..it HAS been rumored for a long time that most HAMS **ARE** "Space
Cadets"....oh ****...were we go.
