Pourquoi est-ce masculine ?

Astronauta is masculine in Italian because it derives from the Greek-Latin compound "astro-" (star) + "-nauta" (sailor), where "-nauta" comes from the Latin masculine noun "nauta" (sailor). However, in modern Italian, "astronauta" is used as both masculine and feminine depending on the gender of the person being referred to (e.g., "l'astronauta" can refer to either a male or female astronaut). While the etymology points to a masculine origin, the word is increasingly treated as a common gender noun in contemporary usage.
