Think about it carefully cos the wrong answer could leave you feeling very claustrophobic…

Id like to think I would go but the reality is that I wouldn’t be able to handle the confined space etc…

So its a NO from me…

Over to the panel…

Yep, I’d love to. I suppose it’d depend a bit on the “package” but basically yes.

yes

Yep.

Hell yeah.

On the basis it’s a return trip, heck yes!

Are you mental? The answer to that is a big fat yes from!

It’s my dream. I can’t imagine anything more incredible than looking down on the earth from space.
If I won the lottery it’s the first thing I’d try to do.
I’m still hopeful that commercial space travel will become affordable enough within my lifetime…

return ticket? yeah

I’d have a lot of fears over it but yes, opportunity not to miss. Watched Gravity at the wkend, though. Almost good enough.

heard Gravity was disappointing in the accuracy dept., but I’ve not seen it.

return ticket? Yes!

I went to space loads of times during the early 90’s. I’d recommend it! 😀

To just go into earths orbit and then come back down all the time confined into a small metal container, no.

To travel to distant planets and make sweet sweet love to foxy alien ladies… HELL YES!

Hell yes, I imagine if I did it would be exactly like the Simpsons episode when homer goes to space.

Nooooooo.

only if it counts towards my BA air miles.

‘kin hell no!

Am involved with the aerospace industry the phrase on a wing and a prayer sums it up nicely

I dunno what the fuss is about? Done it before, it was OK but the milk was a bit expensive…

Another resounding yes!

@rocketman
it’ll be fine™

I know the guys pressing the buttons, and I trust them.

If Sandra’s coming in those pants count me in.

Probably not. I’d love to but if the risks of exploding or burning up are still as high as the 1 per 100 I saw suggested in a space shuttle doc then that’s a pretty high risk of death. Very very tempting though, and great question.

heard Gravity was disappointing in the accuracy dept., but I’ve not seen it.

The problem with Gravity was that it sold itself on being totally, absolutely accurate. And then they made a few tiny errors, which in any other film would have been completely unnoticed. But because of the film’s aspirations, people were looking for every possible reason to point out flaws. Like movie audiences do, the ****heads.

Yep, tomorrow if it was on the cards.

I know the guys pressing the buttons, and I trust them.

Good luck Andy let us know how you get on

Was I the only one whose mind hit the gutter when reading this? 😀

I’d love to go into space. It’s where the human race needs to go.

I may read too much sci-fi though.

No

Because my kids have seen ‘White Men Can’t Jump’

“Your mothers Dads an astronaut”

😉

yip, can I go tomorrow?

Absolutely.

So long as I could do this?

Hell, yes…!

No, if it was by a space shuttle, wouldn’t fancy those odds.

I’ve seen Alien so no way.

(The real answer is yes though).

100% yes and can I reserve a day trip to the moon?

No, if it was by a space shuttle, wouldn’t fancy those odds.

Actually, I was supposed to be born after the United Federation of Planets was established and I was supposed to work on a Galaxy class starship.

However there was a communication error somewhere and I was born in the 1970s.

I was born in 1975. Star Wars was my childhood. The first shuttle flight into space happened when I was in my first year of primary school. Hell yes.

No.

I’ve never taken the trans-Siberian railway and climbed up a mountain to look down on the world, so I probably wouldn’t want do more or less the same thing and go into space. I’m not saying anything bad about people who would enjoy it tho.

Having seen Gravity? No thanks!

As soon as I put the suit on I would need to go for a poo and I’d have a really annoying itch on the end of my nose.
