A bird in the hand is worth two in the bush.
What if the hand is under-sized?
All Hans on deck!
Now Merkel's promising flights to the moon?

Having a few German engineers on board would be handy.

Yeah, was Yuri Gagarin the first Soviet in space..

As Mark Twain once said, it's easier to fool people than to convince them that they have been fooled.

In the meantime... another Voyager leaves the Solar System

The journey without destination... Scary and beautiful at once :-)

I looked and I certainly agree. There's just no way a large dashed red ellipse could be on the moon like that photo shows.

Nasa cancels all-female spacewalk, citing lack of spacesuit in right size

She thought a large-sized suit would be fine but after a spacewalk last week found that the medium-sized was a better fit and would be the most appropriate suit to wear to venture back outside the International Space Station.
“Anne trained in ‘M’ and ‘L’ and thought she could use a large but decided after [last] Friday’s spacewalk a medium fits better,” a Nasa spokeswoman, Stephanie Schierholz, announced on Monday.
“In this case, it’s easier (and faster!) to change space-walkers than reconfigure the spacesuit.”
