Sounds odd to say but any young person who’s interested in becoming an astronaut should study Biology, Physics, Math or Chemistry (now there’s a good Ministry tribute band name). Most of the experiments conducted on orbit relate to those fields. Astronomers never make it off the ground.
I’m none of those things. I’m not nearly smart enough. Very few people who work at NASA are actual rocket scientists. Although I know a few that were. They had their own t-shirts that read, “Why yes! In fact I am a Rocket Scientist.”

I’m approaching mid 30’s so I’m past the want of being an astronaut. those dreams faded when I had a hard time with simple math in grade school. (It wasn’t simple to me, at the time, though!) I was never really interested in Bio and Chemistry had too much damn math connected with it. So I’m stuck with star gazing and waiting for the smarties to get the pictures back from the missions they have succeeded at!
Damn it why did they go to Titan over Europa!!! As Far as we know, Water = life but we go for the alien atmosphere rather than the essential building block of life… Don’t need an atmosphere if you live in water!! Sometimes smarties are stupid!

The guy has clearly gone deaf. Listening to TLS once through probably did it. That was certainly the end for me. I have decided that before the year is out, I will (maybe) listen to post LFG Revco, and the Christmas Song, and if i can stomach it, maybe even this song you are all talking about. Also, this year, I will paper cut my urethra.
