Actually, we should probably send a black, trans man / woman...er...minority. Although perhaps they'd have to go in a craft built by people of similar minorities...or maybe the whole idea is racist/sexist/homophobic/whatever...oh, let's just scrap the whole thing! ____________________ Chickenystripgeezer's Biking Life (Latest update 19/10/18) Belgium, France, Italy, Austria tour 2016 Picos de Europa, Pyrenees and French Alps tour 2017 Scotland Trip 1, now with BONUS FEATURE edit, 5/10/19, on page 2 Scotland Trip 2 Luxembourg, Black Forest, Switzerland, Vosges Trip 2017

Oh God, I love Total Recall. I like the look on his face when he is deciding what sort of girl to have on his adventure, he says "Sleazy"

I'm assuming from the commentary (and the issue of Earth-Mars comm lag) that the landing was fully automated. A little more dramatic with the video tacked onto the previous NASA control room chatter ____________________ Husqvarna Vitpilen 401, Yamaha XSR700, Honda Rebel, Yamaha DT175, Suzuki SV650 (loan) Fazer 600, Keeway Superlight 125, 50cc turd scooter |

Yes. It has to be due to the 22 minute round trip time for comms.
The Yanks do get over excited though.
A simple "well done chaps" would have been sufficient. ____________________ Current bike: Honda ST1100 |
