NASA Launches David Bowie Concept Mission, The Onion
“NASA officials announced today the successful launch of the new shuttle Moonage Daydream, marking the beginning of a long-anticipated two-week conceptual mission inspired by British rock star David Bowie. According to NASA administrator Maj. Gen. Charles F. Bolden, Jr., the highly experimental glam space program dubbed Project Starman has been in development for exactly five years. Though engineers initially feared the mission might “blow our minds,” the historic launch ultimately proceeded without incident.”

    Dunno…think we can get some face-paint in the next Dragon? Scott Kelly looks pretty glam in that photo.

    (…though it was Mark who did the Space Oddity duet with U2…)
