Not for me, Clive. Uncomfortable, cramped, claustrophobic, squalid (you have to píss yourself, ffs!), recycled farty air, crap food and you're probably going to be stuck with Russians and septics. In short, fùck that for a game of soldiers.

Fùck no. I'm not keen on any kind of travel, and space travel is quite clearly the most dangerous and uncomfortable of all. I'll be one of the last to leave when we abandon the planet following a dystopian environmental breakdown, and will live in a fùcking massive, empty, crumbling apartment block like J.S. Sebastian in Bladerunner.
Since the dawn of time, man has looked to the skies and beyond, to the stars. Can there be a greater indicator of what it is that makes us human then our need to reach out, to conquer fear and danger, to experience the truly extraordinary? I think not.
On the other hand, growing cress in low earth orbit on the ISS is a bit dull.
I may be wrong but I don't think you can drink in space.
Seems like a lot of faffing about to me. Do these people do this every time they fancy a shag or is it just for special occasions? You couldn't suggest a quickie to your partner if it was going to involve you both going off to your dungeon, popping on the rubber suit and attaching the testicle clamps, could you?
It's trying to burst out of the top of your head. At -5, -6 you start bursting blood vessels in your eyes and your nose and the pressure of the blood in your brain is fantastically painful. Lots of guys have died pushing -8 onwards when something lets go and they have a big bleed on the brain.
Negative g is really quite unpleasant.
Yeah, you can just imagine, can't you? You wake up floating outside, you've píssed your space suit (as ever), you can't get the lads to wake up and let you back in and then, when you eventually do, in the depths of your hangover you realise you've drunk the next six months' worth in one weekend. :-(
:hehe: You can get an idea of how enjoyable it is here: (This is mild g)

You'll never be a proper centre-forward then.
I'd love to go into space but nt sure how my vertigo would cope with it.
