Blast? Not launch?

“Is that your crash helmets?”

“Oh, I hope not.”

[GreatRoad]

Hopefully they can rocket better than they can drive.

China is catching up fast. They are playing to win. Wonder if the Chinese space agency has a Muslim outreach program?

They have an advantage with all the info they got from Bill Clinton.

"Chinese officials unveiled plans for Monday’s launch of the country’s latest space mission in which two astronauts will be blasted into space and will dock with an orbiting space lab."

Are they going to use a space vehicle of some sort or just load 'em up circus style?

[Celerity]

Are the two astronauts aware of this ?

Are they Falun Gong ?

[Heart-Rest]

"And stop calling us 'Yin & Yang' in your WikiLeaks, Hillareeks!"

[Jimmy Valentine]

Hope they bought a lot of life insurance.

[caddie]

I hope they don’t come through the reentry procedure as a Sizzling Happy Family.

Be sure to thank Bill Clinton, traitor extraordinaire.

The two Astronauts are Captain Sum Tin Wong and crew member Ho Lee Fuk.

One thing the US can no longer do is laugh at other countries’ space programs. Yeah, we’ve got the Muslim outreach and global warming things handled and we like to pay huge subsidies to politically-connected faux entrepreneurs to build exploding rockets (and cars) but as far as manned space flight goes, we appear to have quit the game for good.
