Is her name Mary-Sue by any chance?
My wife and I were just trying to do the math on how big the trailer needs to be for the Tampons or pads to get her through the trip there and back. It will have to be bigger than the spacecraft it’s self.There ain’t no getting around this biological fact.They might as well stop the funds to this one, it is already a fail from the get go...
Her first question, “Do I still get unlimited minutes to anywhere?”
I’ll go... I know I won’t live to make it but earth is beginning to suck really bad.
NASA budget time ping!
Wow a GIRL astronaut, we’ve never had one of THOSE.
Such a giddy poorly written article, that actually sounds more like something from those old Tiger Beat magazines my sister used to read as a teen.
My first thought is, this is not going to end well, it was a PC choice and this is the very first manned Mars effort which is no place for that.
I would rather have my tax dollars spent on prosecuting Hillary than going to Mars. Without the rule of law it all comes down.
*****Right now, she’s working on getting her pilot’s license, underwater survival training, scuba diving certification and more*****
I just don’t think those last two will be of much use on mars...
A lot can happen in a decade, so time will tell.
What we know for sure is there won’t be a straight white male on board.
What utter rank stupidity. No decisions on who will go to Mars should have been made yet. There may be millions more qualified than this 17 year old.
Sending anyone to mars to look for water and discover “really awesome things” is stupid to the max. Send a robot. Easier, cheaoer, more efficient and safer. That is, if you must know about water on mars.
It is all very fanciful and wastefully silly to me.
Wonderful plot for a power rangers movie though.
Oh, boy. Here comes the next version of the Shuttle program.
Good for her. She reminds me of my cousin, who scored just under a perfect score on her SATs, attended Rennsalier, got her degree in petroleum engineering, and flew around the world exploring for oil and working on rigs.
Poor girl. If she is hitching her wagon to NASA there is no chance she will ever get to Mars.
Wow, bookmark
