So its amazing Space Stuff.

[redrumracer]

I can say i have done a couple of things that not too many other people have done or prob will ever do again.

A) I have WALKED in the International Space Station

B) I have TOUCHED the outside of the International Space Station

C) I have also been INSIDE of an actually space shuttle

I just remembered this today as I was talking to my dad about how I missed the shuttle going over Atlanta last night. I did all this at space camp in Alabama back when I was in middle school.

not everyone would find this entertaining or interesting but for the few that do thanks for looking

[§treet_§peed]

did anyone else see that shit falling into the atmosphere earlier today?

[Alan®]

what like the actual sections that they were building or the sims?

actual sections that they were building at the time.

[redrumracer]

[Halfwit]

wow. thats a huge accomplishment in life.

i bet if you put that in a job application, youll get it no-doubt.

I hate you so hard. I used to be the biggest space nerd.

[§treet_§peed]

lol here comes the ass hole out of the group. i was jsut wondering what it was, it was huge because most things just burn out in a few seconds after hitting the atmosphere. this thing stayed burning until i couldn't see it no more so i dunno....

[§treet_§peed]

plus i have yet to see anything on the net or on the news about it so i wonder.... kno what i mean?

hmmmm nice hint of sarcasm i suppose

lol i still am. being an astronaut is my ultimate goal. hence why im trying to hurry with my 4 year degree and join the AF and try to get a test pilot slot.

[redrumracer]

hell i am watching the NASA channel right now.

[§treet_§peed]

oh god! maybe u saw a UFO!! or maybe it was a shooting star.

no one cares.damn casey i thought you graduated and could read.. i said i thought it was to big of an object or something else other than a shooting star. because they usually just last a few seconds. this damn thing last atleast 8 minutes before it went out of site...

[The Yousef]

damnit!

i always wanted to go to space camp...but yeah dude that's awesome!

[redrumracer]

They do have adult space camp :D

oh and food for thought, Russian Cosmonauts carry a hand gun with them in space somewhere in their section.

[§treet_§peed]

lol sounds like something the Russians would do.. and prolly some form of alcohol as well

[The Yousef]

why?

did they have a 'political' officer too (like the russians)?

for the uninformed...political officer was the member of the communist party that was assigned to various branches of military to preach communist doctrine and report directly to the politburo...

well I wouldn't be surprised but right now they are talking about a caulking gun that is on the ISS and it reminded me of it.

it dates back to when they went up in capsule and didnt have a way to control where they landed. One time they were stuck in the capsule with a bunch of wild animals around them and it was too dangerous for them to go outside. ever since then they have had them for protection reasons.

[Bruce Leroy]

I went to space camp too, like 2wice...... And avation challenge 3 times.

Then i started liking cars and fucked my life up.

[blacknightteg]

i have done most of those things two. cept i wasnt a nerd n didnt go to space camp.

[Brett]

I have always wanted to be able to tour behind the scenes and walk up and just put my hand on one of the orbiters. I have been a die hard Space Shuttle program fan since I was a kid.

[redrumracer]

been there done that. :D
well then :taun: :taun: :taun: still not too many have done that and no one will prob ever do it again(minus the inside the shuttle part)

you should just see if you can take a trip down one weekend and see if you can take a real in depth tour, and i too have always loved the space program. hopefully one day i'll be employed by them :goodjob:

They dont have tours that take you in to see the actual shuttles in the processing bays, that is something Id kill to do. Leisa once called up there to see if they had anything like that because she knew how bad I just wanted to walk up to one and just look at it.

[Elbow]

I saw the Shuttle launch, land, I have tons of space stuff in my closet still from my space days.

[redrumracer]

lol has everyone went through a space phase??????

if so i never fully left it.

[Elbow]

More then a phase, but then found racing a cheaper alternate.
