Let us have our space sex fantasy, man!!***
I’d be a lot more concerned if they were coming back on the Boeing spacecraft. We’re damn lucky we didn’t kill 2 astronauts because no one had the guts to kill the Boeing project years ago.
After being weightless that long gravity will kick their butts when they reach earth. It'll be a while before they can even walk. I just hope they make it.
They’re not sending up a special mission. Taking 2 astronauts off the next scheduled mission & bringing them back when that mission is over. But yeah, Elon will have to get them. One interesting thing, their Boeing spacesuits aren’t compatible with the SpaceX spacecraft so in the very unlikely event they need them , they’ll be screwed.
Yeah, but several people have been in space more than twice as long as they will. That’s really not an issue.
I wonder what gravity does to, ummm other, shall we say extremities over a long period of time like maybe, Pinochios nose let's say? Asking for the spouses of those 2 astronauts
Someone with actual knowledge on the subject - how did the American space program get to this point and was it planned? We put a man on the moon over 50 years ago but now rely a private company and the goddamned Russians to get our astronauts into orbit.
We’ve always relied on private companies in our space programs from the beginning. Difference is instead of subcontracting with them for NASA ships, we’re contracting with them to design & build their own ships. So far we’re 1-1 on that. Space X has been a huge success. Boeing a huge failure. Overall the mismanagement and politics in the space program has been a disaster.
