Needs Another Seven Astronauts.

does anyone really care what these waste of taxpayers money are doing anymore?

sure they take pretty pictures... but i could draw that!

Never Advertise Sexual Antics.....??

Do You Ever Wonder Wether There Is A "Mile High Club" For Astronauts?

Surely They Must Have "Done The Deed" Up There..

Cheers Glen.

I saw a documentary about all of NASA's flaws. It really makes going to the moon seem like a crazy death wish.

Nah, I kinda thing there shouldn't be any shuttle missions either. America proved it was the best country ever, now we can move on.

Boogabaah · May 11, 2009

this still boggles my mind.. and i know it's been brought up before... but

how the fuck did they get a picture of our galaxy??

Cherea · May 11, 2009

I know what N.S.A stands for. :cheers2:

N.A.S.A = Need another stupid acronym.... hmm now I need another stupid answer.

Well, NASA, which was founded by NAZI's, has always had a secret agenda having nothing to do with what their multi-billion dollar PR campaign would have you believing. NASA is simply the front for the weaponization and conquering of space. If you can control the area surrounding the earth, you can much better control the people living ON the earth, and that's where all those nice satellites come into play that can spot a penny on the ground and probably even see through your walls.

But of course they still cannot find the ever-ellusive bin Laden or stop the flow of drugs coming into the country.

yeah, just think how clear a lug nut will look on the ground with them new cameras they installed today... Nascar will not even need that many rednecks in the pits..

Don't deny me the chance to read another new Darwin Award entry !
