An exploration of the serious/fun/ridiculous - past/present/future of the brain and the science that loves it.

The Homunculus

steve_icon_medium.jpgThe Omnibrain is a psychology graduate student at an online university. He hopes that the three weeks and $29.95 that he is spending on his Ph.D. will get him a job at a Tier 1 research university. Do online universities have postdocs? Ok...just kidding, The Omnibrain is a real graduate student at a real school somewhere in the continental United States - or maybe Europe.

NASA claims pilots never flew drunk.... what Omni Brain has to say

Tang.jpgAccording to the LA Times:

NASA said Wednesday that it had found no evidence that any of its astronauts ever flew while inebriated, or even showed up for work impaired, as was recently alleged by an outside investigative panel.

Bull Shit. Tang is disgusting without Vodka.

Ummm...

I hate to admit that I know this, but Tang is also disgusting with vodka.

Actually, their statement is factually true, and you can check this for yourself.

The only shuttle ever flown by astronauts was the Enterprise, which never got an orbital mission.

Since Enterprise, all shuttle flights have been computer controlled under direction from ground control. So there have been exactly zero drunks flying shuttles, just as there have been zero sober people flying them.

The correct question would be how many drunken passengers has the STS put into orbit or brought back to the surface.

If you want to question NASA mouthpieces I suggest you pistolwhip them first and shoot their kneecaps to get their attention. Otherwise they'll just lie, lie, lie,lie, lie, lie....
