I think you need to go on a holiday out of your rear end for a while.
Honestly, just wow...even when APOD posts a picture with planets in it your not happy..

Re: APOD: Happy People Dancing on Planet Earth (2012 Jul 10)
Amazed at some of the short sighted responses on here for people who are supposed to look beyond horizons. If ever you wanted proof about the astounding nature of the universe, just look and see what happens to the end product of supernovas dancing. To make an apple pie from scratch you first need t...

Re: APOD: Last Roll Out of a NASA Space Shuttle (2011 Jun 20
NASA as an organisation is still productive but its manned program seems to be either defunct or no longer a priority. Probes are good but its manned missions that we need to fire up the imagination. Thats the technical/biological/psychological/chemical challenge - at least to me. I believe you are...

Re: APOD: Last Roll Out of a NASA Space Shuttle (2011 Jun 20
Sad day. Cant the US even spare one aircraft carrier to keep a single shuttle going? I'm not going to follow this flight as its just too sad to see one of the most amazing machines ever built become a museum piece - especially when its not even being replaced. Hopefully NASA will bounce back from be...

Re: APOD: Space Shuttle and Space Station... (2011 Jun 08)
Are there *any* plans to restart the US manned space program? It seems to us over here that the USA is abandoning it in favour of letting private companies take all the risk and blame (and glory). I was born in the year of armstrong/aldrin - to be here 42 years later and seeing no further progress, ...

Re: APOD: The ISS Expands Again (2011 Mar 09)
I remember when people used to applaud human achievement. Now its hand wringing over costs and risk. We'd still be living in caves if this attitude continues. Today is a very sad day. The Discovery on its final flight. Another stage of NASA's massive great leap backward. The ISS is testament to what...

Is it me or are the white and blue plumes kind of twirling around each other? Almost looks like they are corkscrewing around the tail. Might be just an artifact of the image processing but anyway...

Re: APOD: Home from Above (2010 Nov 15)
This kind of image makes me sad that we will soon be back in the 1960's. Who would have dreamed that US astronauts would have to hitch a ride on soviet rockets because they cant get a person in orbit any more ![Sad :(](./images/smilies/icon_sad.gif)

Re: APOD: 700 Kilometers Below Comet Hartley 2 (2010 Nov 08)
Looks like a rubble pile held together by weak gravity..maybe the rate of spin has caused a differentiation between dust/rock sizes and densities.
