Great article about NASA

There is NO WAY I could do that. I struggle on the tube (subway).
Could you go into space?

Thanks for this!

That's fascinating... but you're right, I don't think I'd do well either. When I read the list of what they look for, psychologically, in astronauts, I realized it doesn't matter... I'd never qualify! (Emotional stability? Team work? Ha!)

Neat to think about though... I kind of think they might have been a bit optimistic with the ideas of more non-astronauts going into space in the near future. I'm sure it will happen, eventually, but... I think it's going to be awhile!

Thanks for sharing!

Could I go into space...only if I get to go alone. I couldn't take living with others in such close quarters. That, and the idea that I'm in a tin can and there's no air outside.
