I'll tell you whats up there: rocks, sand and its cold.

Instead of the Billions and Billions of dollars to send a man up there, I'll only charge you ONE MEEEEELION dollars for that information. I will send you my bill.

Ha-ha,very funny,it's not a waste of money,what if they can find something to help the starving children on this planet.
George Bush is not spending enough on space programs,that is why I will vote for Kerry,at least he will try to help!

I think we should go to Mars in a manned spaceship so we can really see what is up there.

If you look real real close at the pictures,you can see pyramids way out in the distance,where did they come from,and who built them?

ZERO GRAVITY

When NASA first started sending up astronauts, they
quickly discovered
that ball-point pens would not work in zero gravity.
To combat this problem, NASA scientists spent a decade
and $12 billion
developing a pen that writes in zero gravity, upside
down, on almost any
surface including glass and at temperatures ranging
from below freezing to over
300 C.

The Russians used a pencil.

Enjoy paying your taxes--they're due again.

Many people have to write things in strange positions,such as mechanics,this makes the cost cheaper.

what the hell does that mean?

This was not a private company developing the pen, it was the US Govt. and they are NOT profitting from it. I'm a mechanic, and I never had a need for one. IF I had to write upside down I'd use a ....PENCIL.
