[Travel] Would you take a trip into Space

[Flounce]

If the opportunity arose?

No charge, just would you go?

Me? Not a chance I hate flying on a commercial jet, I would definitely crap myself.

 

[Herr Tubthumper]

Absolutely. Highly unlikely but I’d be bang up for it if the chance occurred.

 

[RandyWanger]

Yes.

 

[Herr Tubthumper]

PS Buzz Aldrin’s autobiography is a good read.

 

[Flounce]

….

 

[Flounce]

Absolutely. Highly unlikely but I’d be bang up for it if the chance occurred.

Have you considered that you’d have to post photos of liquidised food?

 

[Herr Tubthumper]

Have you considered that you’d have to post photos of liquidised food?

Ha. I'll do it.

And imagine posting a "Anyone know a bar in OUTER SPACE showing the game on Saturday?" thread.

 

[Poyningsgull]

Only if it was a return ticket

 

[Eeyore]

Ha. I'll do it.

And imagine posting a "Anyone know a bar on the MOON showing the game on Saturday?" thread.

You'd be a lunartic going there.

Seriously, what planet are you on ?

 

[Han Solo]

Depends on the space ship. Do they have a pool, bar etc.
Just sittin around staring into the abyss.. no thanks, got that at home.

 

[Tom Hark Preston Park]

I for one would be willing to accept the increased risk of space vehicle-Ulloa penalty collision

 

[Rookie]

100% yes

 

[Happy Exile]

I for one would be willing to accept the increased risk of space vehicle-Ulloa penalty collision

I was reading through the thread and getting increasingly surprised Ulloa hadn't been mentioned yet. I'm relieved standards haven't slipped completely though.

 

[Insel affe]

I thought we were in space.

 

[Official Old Man]

100% yes.
Although those two guys in the Boeing flight that was put on hold numorous times with minutes to go must be either crazy stupid or have RDZ's balls.
Keep talking to the wife that, if I had the money and that's £millions, I'd be in both a space flight and the sub down to Titanic.

 

[BBassic]

Definitely.

 

[Frutos]

Yes.

I've experienced weightlessness on a parabolic flight (incredible feeling) but to see the Earth from space would be an unmissable experience.

 

[Guinness Boy]

Absolutely.

Love some of the photos from pilots' flight decks on Twitter AV Geeks hashtags. A view from even higher would be superb.

Re-entry might be difficult but, hey, story of my life....

 

[Nobby Cybergoat]

Easy to talk jonny big bollocks when it's never going to happen. I'll say it. I'm an absolute coward right. Whist I've got school age kids I could never take such a risk with my safety.

But wind forward 10 years, i'd have to think about taking a chance like this if it were offered

 

[Is it PotG?]

Not a chance.

The Space Motion Sickness nausea, ablutions faffing about.

Not for me Clive.
