The 'Ving Straw' Theory of Propulsion in Space

[ballaratdragons]

The 'Ving' Straw Theory!

[toetoe]

I like that Ken, very good.

[ving]

thanks ken, I think you captured my theory pretty well :P

but according to slice you need 50 people blowing on that straw!

[ballaratdragons]

hehehehe! They are all in the back waiting to join in. I think they are watching the in-flight movie 'Dumb & Dumber and then there's us!'

[[1ponders]]

Coming from the area, I think you'll find that there are enough spaced out people there to want to try this.

[ballaratdragons]

LOL.

NASA will read this and fund an experiment in space "How much pressure needs to be blown through a straw by an Astronaut to make a 1 degree manouvre".

[atalas]

Being a funny guy I have to say ,blow It out the other end !It will go faster.

If this statement offends anyone I plead insanity!


Louie :D

[ving]

nose?

[mojo]

lol. now that's a work of art!

ving's theory couldn't possibly work. there's no way an astronaut could blow through a straw with a helmet on.

[ballaratdragons]

It's a magic helmet Terry. One of those NASA secrets!

They changed the design and made this helmet to 'blow' cause all the Astronauts kept saying "These helmets suck".

[slice of heaven]

I like this kind of thread. lol

Youd make a great modern theorist BD
If the facts dont support the theory , change the facts !

[mojo]

ha. funnier than a fart in a space-suit, Ken :D that's what the straw is for...fresh air!

someone should email NASA and get the ISS astronauts to blow through an IceInSpace straw as an experiment. "Experiment #923: Ving Straw Propulsion Theory".
I wonder if they'd realise it was just blatent advertising? :)

[ballaratdragons]

Yep Slice. Works every time!

Terry, that's why the helmets are so big, for advertising!

Here is the actual NASA top secret helmet.

[ballaratdragons]

I smuggled out the Top Secret photos of the 'Ving' suits to be used in 2008.

They are very, very advanced!

Note that the straws don't float off into space! (another secret)

[RAJAH235]

Hi Ken. Once again you have brought some sanity to this place.
Tell me tho., wouldn't using an adjustable/flexible straw be a little better for directional stability? Your art work is great. I recognised Ving immediately. Thanks for a great present, (a big laugh), on my birthday. :thumbsup: :D L.

[ballaratdragons]

Laurie,

To be serious for a minute, they did try the flexible straw method but it sent the Astronaut into a very dangerous spin!

[RAJAH235]

Hi Ken, You tryin' to kill me with laughter before the night's out, aren't you? :P L.
ps. I always thought Astronauts were a lot of 'Blow Hards'!

[mojo]

It would be a tad funny if IceInSpace gets a visit from men in suits as black helicopters circle, asking how we got photos of the top secret "straw project". :)

[ballaratdragons]

I managed to get a photo of David (the Inventor of 'Ving Straw' Motion) getting ready for a test flight into space to test the new improved super straw!

[RAJAH235]

Too good Ken, almost fell off my chair with that one. :D L.
ps. Ving, just make sure that they're straws & not 'candy canes'. :thumbsup:

[cahullian]

way to go ken looks better than anything nasa has ever done. you crack me up mate.

thats way funny stuff :D

[ballaratdragons]

Don't encourage me or I'll never stop!:P

[ballaratdragons]

This is after a prolonged mission in space!

[ving]

oi! i was gong to dothat one when i got home!!!

btw, i showed cheryl that pic of mein the orange suit and she loved it. hope you dont mind but we yoinked it on to our hard drive :)

[cahullian]

David,

[ballaratdragons]

Behave or I'll really go overboard in PaintShop!

[ving]

[[1ponders]]

:lol::lol::lol: That looks brilliant Ken. Sick but brilliant. :cool2:

[seeker372011]

like this thread!

[ballaratdragons]

You like it?

Ok, I'll keep going then.

Plus David did dare me!!!

[ving]

hey! you put a hole in my scope!!!!
but me a new one now! :P

hehe

[ballaratdragons]

It's the ACME de-fogging hole!

Anyway, that scope is too big for you.

[rowena]

hahah you could give him a bull ring if hes complaing about the hole in his nose ken!

i can see why you got your new job! your good at doing this kind of stuff!!!

[Orion]

All I can say is thanks Ken:bowdown: :lol: :lol:

[ballaratdragons]

My monitor is a wee bit smaller than the sides of a semi-trailer!! :D

Ed, your welcome. I don't mind if we all laugh at David.

[[1ponders]]

:rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: I think I just had an accident. Oh you're a clever man Ken. But I guess you've got such great material to work with. :P:P

[[1ponders]]

Hey I hope everyone is rating this thread. It deffinately deserves one.

[ving]

now whats that supposed to mean?:confuse3:

:P

[iceman]

haha nice thread :) Great PS work Ken!

[acropolite]

Of course none of this would be possible without a launch vehicle. Thanks must go to Striiiiker Aerospace for the generous donation of the Launch vehicle which is rumoured to have multi- straw propulsion, hidden under the concrete.

[seeker372011]

lol

[h0ughy]

:clap: :clap: :prey2: the great Ken. All hail the the Great Ken!:lol:

[iceman]

haha nice one phil

[ving]

sexiest rocket I've seen for a long time phil! ;)

[xstream]

Shame about the Astronaut though! :P

[ving]

Oi! :eyepop:

:P

[ballaratdragons]

LOL It's a stainless steel chopping block!!!


OFF WITH HIS HEAD :eyepop:

[acropolite]

.News Flash...

[ving]

mmm... beans :D

[ballaratdragons]

HeHeHe

[ballaratdragons]

NASA has released the information about 'Ving Straw Theory!'

[ving]

hows your new job going ken? :)

oh, very good btw :P

[ballaratdragons]

I had to quit! I will PM you about it David.
