Does anyone else enjoy space related things?
Yes!
I've been to the Kennedy Space Station twice. I was surprised at how very small the space suits seem (are the astronauts chosen because they are little, I wonder, to save weight).
And how terribly flimsy-looking some of the equipment is. It reminded me of very old episodes of Dr Who when things were made of poppy-plastic and kitchen foil, and wobbled around a lot.

He's apparently not the tallest astronaut, but I've met Steve Smith, and he seemed really tall to me.
I hadn't known the person I was chatting with was a former astronaut, lol, and so I didn't think quickly enough to get a picture with Steve when I found out. There's only a video and you'd see why it caught me by surprise, but I'm not entirely sure how I feel about it sharing it even though it is not embarrassing. I took a picture with a few other astronauts although I would say Walter Cunningham (Apollo 7) is one of the more prominent ones.
Truly to be the most delicious is to wield this power. The power to create and destroy. And as the most delicious of gods, I am the font of this delicious power. From me spills all the deliciousness in creation.
