Chicken Little Was Right

This is an artist's rendition of the space junk out there.
Maybe we should get some helmets.
And some more wine.

Just this past week two satellites collided over Siberia. Thousands of nuts, bolts, gloves and other debris from space missions form an orbiting garbage dump around Earth, presenting a hazard to spacecraft. Some of the bits and pieces scream along at 17,500 mph. Kinda makes you wonder???

Yup, wine is good.

I wish I had some wine. I'm up watching The Seven Year Itch. Boy do they drink a lot in this movie.

How funny! I posted the same picture with a different twist...now pass the wine!

Deb said...

Wine? Somebody say something about wine? Had some great stuff on V Day!

Perhaps we should all be wearing helmets. Well my hair would look better hidden anyway.

Wine is never a question mark in my book.

And they wonder why we have global warming?

ANY reason to pick up more wine is a good idea!

On the news last nite they showed some debris falling to earth .. it was on FIRE .. FLAMES .. BURNING ... so where it landed, did the debris create a fire?

Helmets are over rated, but wine is essential.

I don't look in hats or helmets - so wine it will be to numb me from feeing the falling debris.

I really do wonder how STUPID the NASA planners have been over the years. (Eew, that sounded suspiciously like a Monday morning comment.)

Trisha said...

Since remains of sattelites just landed in Texas - and started fires - I can totally understand the whole fear of space-junk. My wonder is how in the world the space shuttle never hit anything!

I'll have my wine with a side of chocolate.

I saw that picture and thought it was striking.

I wonder if there's really that much stuff up there?

Looks like space glitter to me. I like glitter. And wine.
