Ever since I was a little girl, I have been waiting for the Jews in Space that Mel Brooks promised me in History of the World: Part I. But alas, it never happened. And what happened in History of the World: Part II doesn’t count.
Having said that. We finally got Jews in Space because NASA Astronaut Jasmin Moghbeli posted a video of a dreidel spinning in front of a paper menorah (they can’t light candles in Space) from the International Space Station!
So, I say to her and all the astronauts in the ISS, Happy Chanukah, and thank you for finally making my dream come true! Now, can you do a song and dance number in the style of Mel Brooks? Too much, I know!
Ever since you were a kid, you have laughed anytime anyone says Uranus because it sounds like you’re an a$$. Well according to a new study by Nature Astronomy, it also smells like your a$$ after you have eaten beans for lunch and then went to do hot yoga right afterward.
NASA discovered hydrogen sulfide in the planet’s cloud top and that causes it to smell like rotten eggs and farts. Basically your a$$.
Let’s hope when they find another planet for us to live on, this is not the one. There are only so many candles and air fresheners they can fit on the rocket ride over and that is not enough to make it inhabitable.
We know you cannot have sex in Space, but that does not mean you can get out of cleaning while you up there? Even on your days off on the International Space Station, you still have to tidy up. NASA Astronaut Joseph M Acaba showed us what they have to do to keep the ISS clean! While it might not be much, it is still cleaning.
No sex and you still have to clean, sounds like Space isn’t any fun. Although there is that whole being miles up from the Earth and what is cooler than that? So what is a little celibacy and cleaning up?
Fidget spinners are slowly taking over on Earth, and now they are doing the same thing in the International Space Station. Astronauts Randy Bresnik, Mark T. Vande Hei and Joseph M. Acaba tried one out in the name of science and determined, “How long does it spin? I’m not sure, but it’s a great way to experiment with Newton’s laws of motion!”
I wish my fidget spinner did the same thing on land as it does in Space, but really it is just a toy to keep my cat happy. Goes great with cat nip and almost has her spinning around like the astronauts.
Seriously though, how out-of-this-World cool is to see them play with the spinners up there?
We would have to have a man walk on the moon in order to get the Jonas Brothers back in the studio again. Looks like we might be one giant step for mankind closer to getting that to happen because here is Kevin, Nick and Joe Jonas hanging with Buzz Aldrin yesterday! Hopefully the astronaut is working his magic to get the four of them to record some new music. It is what the music industry has been missing!
