Welcome aboard the Good Ship IIS Joash, departing right now for destinations many and varied. Please remain seated throughout the ride!

[Moonboy]

Hi Joash,
I reckon it would be dangerous being an Astronaut,
BUT (lol, there's always a BUT:P)
I also think it would be fun and a once in a life time experience,
so I put 'Not sure'

Hi and welcome Joash, :hi:

If I had the chance to become an Astronaut..... I would.

It would be a once in a life time experience that only a very small number of people get to experience.

I voted YES! ;)

[AstralTraveller]

Joash,

I think there has been some confusion :confuse2:. This is the place for astro-nuts. Astronauts are down the hallway, second door on the left. :ship1:

But, while you're here I hope you enjoy yourself :thumbsup:.

[FrostyXIII]

I voted Yes!

Astronaut all the way!

[leon]

I voted yes as well, but I don't think they take old farts like me, :lol: I would probably keel over on blast off. :rofl: :rofl:

Leon :thumbsup:

[Ric]

Yes for me as well, next mission to Mars please.

Hey Leon, remember the movie "Space Cowboys" there's still hope for us yet. :thumbsup:

Welcome to IIS Joash, hope you have a great time here with us.

Cheers

I still remember the Pan Am spaceplace from 2001 a space oddysey. Maybe it will come true after all. :)

Hi Josh welcome to IIS I voted yes as it would be a dream come true for me to go into outer space. Keep studying and keep fit and you never know, you might be in with a chance to get there.

Gazz

[cahullian]

wow only 55% saying yes so far. I thought it would have been at least a 90% yes vote in a forum such as this.

:hi::hi::welcome::anaut::ship2::gda y::camera:

Hell yeah i wanna go to Saturn woohooo bring it on :lol:

[Adrian-H]

thats an easy question to answer, mars too please!

[Moonboy]

All the way to Saturn??

[gman]

Prepare the ship for warp 3 Mr Sulu
Scotty, make sure we have a supply of lithium crystals as they are prone to burning out.
Bones, better check the ticker cause given half a chance, I'm outta here.

[Jen]

Yep yep yep :thumbsup:
:ship1:

[Screwdriverone]

Grant, Grant, Grant!

They are DI-Lithium crystals! - sheesh! :rolleyes:

Hand over your phaser and your communicator and report to the BRIG!.

Chris

[gman]

Check episode, "Mudds Women", aired Oct 13 1966 in the states
Referred as Lithium Crystals.
Loose get out of jail, but fact works everytime
Phew! - escapes the brig again:whistle:

[bones]

I voted yes. Something I'd like on the "bucket list" one day.

[Screwdriverone]

Touche, Grant, touche,

However, playing the Star Trek Nerd Card doesnt work with someone who was born 4 years after said episode! :P

Technically you are right, however, technically, I am even bigger a nerd for correcting you in the first place. :doh:

Anyone else think its funny that the very next post after Grant's comeback was from someone called "Bones"? :D

Chris

[AlexN]

welcome!

I cant say that I want to be an astronaut... but go to space, **** yes... whatever i have to do to be one of the first people to colonize another planet...

[Glenhuon]

I think I've met a few who have done just that, moved to this planet. :)

Bill

[Cerberus]

realistically, being an astronaut is very demanding, that's why most are former airforce pilots, so on one hand i would like to be up there doing something no one else has done, but on the other you know there are big risks
but if you have a few million $ to spare(about $20million should do it!) you could ask the Russians nicely and jump the queue!

[mabsj2]

thanks for your comments.
i now see most people want to make it to space. that's great and with Space Tourism becoming a reality soon, surely we shall have more humans visiting what man has loved to conquer for a very long time.... SPACE..:)
