“After seeing so many explosions, I’d agree with Woods on this. I don’t know if I would do it if offered the opportunity. Murphy hasnt always been in my favor...”
My old neighbor — they sold their house in Montana and moved to Arizona to be near their child and Grand kids — was a professor at our local college. He was an Astro physicist.
One day were were at their house having drinks and I noticed a few engraved beer mugs above a kitchen cabinet.
“What are those? I asked.
“Those are keepsakes.”
“From what,” I asked.
“The space shuttle Challenger, that’s the last time I went to space.”
Turns out he had been to SkyLab three times as well...
They were a nice couple as long as you didn’t talk politics.
I wonder what the headlines would read if Musk had done it instead.
Cool story...
BTTT!
A sub-orbital doesn’t pour on the Gs like a burn to orbit, for sure.
Musk would have considered it a total waste of money.
The women who have served for extended periods of time on the International Space Station are worthy of recognition. These babes took a ten minute ride requiring no skill or participation in the operation of the rocket. All they were required to do was sit in the capsule. You could hear them all screaming on the way down.
I have no problem with that.
Real spacesuits don’t display cleavage.
Hell of a bachelorette party.
At least in the vacuum of space no one else could hear them talk.
Maybe that’s why Bezos did it. He got a precious ten minutes of peace and quiet that he will never enjoy again, after he is married.
Nice legs.
I’m disappointed that they didn’t go all the way to the space station and left them stranded there
I’m sorry, this stunt was nothing more than a tribute to the still ever present wokeness in our society.
And unbuckling to experience weightlessness for 2-3 minutes is not exactly any great accomplishment furthering space exploration.
lol!!! Alice never looked too worried when he said that!
LOL! That was a good one, and most likely quite true.

The Bezos girlfriend has a fish face. How much did she pay the plastic surgeon to achieve that?
Did they really scream?????
