Wrong NUMBER_OF_PEOPLE_IN_SPACE returned

[AndreyKopeyko]

I checked now astros.json and see that it doesn't count Chinese taikonauts as human beings being in space right now. :-(

According to https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tiangong_space_station#Crewed_missions
from 2024-04-25 we have 3 more humans in near Earth space.

So, the correct NUMBER_OF_PEOPLE_IN_SPACE should be 10 for today.

Can you please take Chinese into account too?
I would like to have a precise data source for my pet project.

@AndreyKopeyko

I think that at the moment the project is dead :(

Seems like this issue was fixed silently - now I can see 3 taikonauts in astros.json output

Still returning the same result, 14th Apr 2025, well after the return to Earth of Butch & Sunita.

Such a shame this can't be fully automated as makes for a great student project.

Still showing the incorrect number of peeps.
I am not certain the location info is correct either.
Hopefully someone smarter than me can fix this haha

Still seeing 12 ... should be only 10
