Final Countdown
As a science nerd I've been watching New Horizons travel the solar system. when it launched, I was just about to become a dad. Now I have two children and a pro at fatherhood.
If I were president, I would have NASA and the DoD switch budgets. Had we done that after the cold war, we would have a McDonalds on Mars by now.
"I like a McRock with a side order of...rock."
"that'll cost two stones."
"Got change for a boulder?"
ok...maybe McDonalds on Mars isn't that great...but at least it'll be American!

anyway, Godspeed New Horizons! What you are about to show us, may the human race will never forget!

Super Exciting!

what's "I like a McRock with a side order of...rock." in Arabic or Russian or Chinese?
cos that might be more relevant if the DoD and NASA had swapped budgets...
;)
POLITICS!

why would it be more relevant? Whoever controls space, controls the land below.

If only we could see ourselves as Earthlings, or at worst as Humans. But I guess American works for some people (even if it's a somewhat artificial division). :)
Ark what other skills do you have apart from Pro? :)

Arktoris for President.

I think we should merge the [Earth] and [Moon] divisions - wait a minute, wrong thread.

Why doesn't the UK Space Agency have a cool acronym like NASA? At least our counterpart beats DoD though.

What's not cool about UKSA?

my other skills are bonehead and always hungry...I'll fit right in with Washington.
If you want us to become "earthlings" foulscumm, vote me president. With a 900 billion dollar/yr budget we're bound to run into some aliens eventually and piss them off with our Americaness.
and nothing unites humans more than an alien invasion!

I'd vote for you, but only because I want to see what you'd make with 900 billion dollars. Even for just one year :D

a really cool fully self sustaining space station...with lasers.
but in secret I'd also be working on cyborging humans, to make them more space compatible.

Ok, you have my vote. Because I just assume us cyborgs will have retina displays so we can play Fumbbl in space right? :D
