Another Angry WomanWhen they go round the moon, the Artemis astronauts will be completely out of contact for 40 minutes. What's the single funniest (yet feasible) thing they could do when they get back in touch?
imo for a totally feasible one, it's speaking exclusively in klingon or some other fictional language and getting increasingly frustrated when mission control don't understand what you're saying
With a little prep (bringing makeup) I reckon you could probably set up a passable Event Horizon-style tableau
Will Deakin@stavvers I was thinking goggly eyes and a cosmic toasted bagel à la "everything everywhere all at once"
ShnoofleBear /ʃnuːfɛlbɛːr/@stavvers Or just wear monkey-masks
Third spruce tree on the left<screech of static> Liberate.... me
Integrity, this is Houston. Say again?
<static> Liberate..... te tutamet... ex inferis
Integrity.. Houston.... uh.. is everything ok?
Yup! Everything fine!
Jamie Gaskins@tezoatlipoca @stavvers Came to the replies to make this reference, glad to see it's already here 😄
Boyd Stephen Smith Jr.@stavvers Yeah, with prep, I think some makeup job could have been funny.
I'd go with just "aging" all the team members 20 years or so.
Ruby Jones@stavvers I still have my Klingon Dictionary! I could help!
⠵⠻⠷⠕⠭ 🍥🍉⚪🌹@stavvers Ha! I was going to say speak backwards because ... time anomaly? idk
Robee? Na! 🌈@stavvers There was some movie where someone lands on a mirror earth where everyone’s organs are on the opposite sides, because the mirror earth is hidden behind the sun in the same orbit but 180 degrees out of phase. 🤔
Stuck HereHa! I remember that movie. I thought the espionage bit with the camera eyeball and the spy spinning the eyeball in different fluids to develop the film was the coolest.
Even better was the airplane that unloaded the passenger compartment completely into the airport. No need to rush the aisle way.
@MyWoolyMastadon @stavvers Are we talking about the same movie? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Journey_to_the_Far_Side_of_the_Sun
Yes. I'm sure it was a highly edited version shown on the regular as a Saturday matinee TV program a few times a year when I was growing up.
And yes, the airplanes and the spaceship had that Thunderbirds esthetic.
Richard Ash@stavvers I'd be lazy and just sneak Slide Whistles on and use them to reply
