I was slightly disappointed that our latest two astronauts (today they made the first U.S. splashdown landing since Apollo-Soyuz 45 years ago!)--whose first names are Bob and Doug--*didn't* give a nod to our Canadian colleagues (who make NASA's Black Brant sounding rockets and provided the Space Shuttles' and the ISS's robot arms) by shouting "Hoser!" after achieving orbit, or upon splashing down (or having their Crew Dragon spaceship berthed at the ISS using its Canadian-made robot arm). Mission control could have acknowledged by saying, "Okay, you knobs..." :-) |
