Space: The smelly frontier


NASA commissions a programme to develop a washing machine for the International Space Station.  This is a good thing, since the current strategy is basically to wear the same thing everyday until your underpants get crunchy.

Oddly enough, this was standard procedure for a lot of my colleagues in my archaeology days.

  1. Hm, the babe-attracting qualities of being an astronaut, versus the babe-repelling ability of anything Trek. I think we have discovered a paradox more potent than spreading butter on a cat's back and seeing which way up it lands. As a matter of fact, I think my head is about to explode in a shower of pyrotechnic sparks.

1. No profanity. I maintain the pretense that this is a family-friendly site.

2. Stay on topic. A bit of straying and off-hand commenting is okay, but hijacking the discussion is right out.

3. No ad hominem attacks. Attack the subject, not the other person on the thread and keep the discussion civil.

4. No spamming or commercial endorsements. These get deleted immediately.

Tip: Beware of putting hyperlinks in your comments–especially at the end. For some reason, Blogger interprets these as spam.
