I had a slight smirk until Riker propped his leg up on Crusher's head. I lost it. I love Riker and how awkwardly butch he tries to be. lol, Hell I've trained my wife to even know what the Riker Maneuver is.

Speaking of nerds....new guilty pleasure is "The Expanse". Fairly decent...it's on Sci-fi of all places.

Hmmmmm....the first American with a DUI in space. Resume sent!

 

[SKYROCK]

Fantastic.

bam……qualified.

somehow I don't think I would be really competitive though (no masters, PHD, or extensive nerdery which has been required since the class of '78 ushered in the space shuttle and all the cultural changes it represented). Also not a TPS grad

In the queue!

In the queue!

More so than nuBSG, it takes some time to spool up.

I'm also catching up on Arrow and The Flash; both of which are unaccountably guilty pleasures. Someone told be the net-show Daredevil is pretty slick, but haven't caught it.

After careful consideration, I think I am going to apply to Virgin Galactic instead.

Best Wishes to everyone.

A clear indicator that Americans' interest in space (and STEM) is drying up....

18,300 apply to NASA's Astronaut Corps. How will they pick just 14?

NASA's latest, record-breaking applicant pool included more than a thousand applicants for every available astronaut slot.

I applied!

I will apply when I get my "qualifying degree" done in a few years.

Yeah my degree fell under the automatic disapproved list. No point in applying because my chances went from 0.1% to flat 0%.

Still trying to shuffle my package through the AF side, but I applied!

In case you did not know, its based off a book series by the same name. Written by James S. A. Corey (two author) of which I've read the first three books: Leviathan Wakes, Caliban's War, Abiden's Gate. Good stuff, I've been watching it on the road myself!

I'm applying just as soon as I complete my 1st XC and get my CCW permit. I will be Space Security.

Plus, we got to spread the, "Gun Love" and get those astronauts strapped up and packing, while in Zero.

Guns on Earth, Guns in Space, It's all part of the Human Race.

Just found out today I was one of 244 applicants that the Department of the Air Force pushed over to NASA.

One thing is sure: NASA will definitely receive my package.
