______ is the official term used by nasa and the russian federal space agency to distinguish between private space travelers and career astronauts.
independent researcher
spaceflight participant
space tourist

Explanation:

NASA and the Russian federal space agency use "spaceflight participant" to distinguish private space travelers (who may not have full - fledged astronaut training in the traditional sense for career astronauts) from career astronauts. "Independent researcher" is not the standard term for this distinction. "Space tourist" is a more general and less official - sounding term compared to the specific "spaceflight participant" used by these agencies.

Answer:

Spaceflight participant
