So I thought this was pretty neat http://www.cnn.com/video/#/video/bestoftv/2008/11/20/mxp.spider.space.cnn until I read this http://redwolf.newsvine.com/_news/2008/11/20/2130969-nasa-loses-spider-on-international-space-station and thought about it being loose. [:D]

Do you think it might be accidentally zapped with a special ray gun and come back to earth invulnerable and ever increasing in size? We needs to know.

To lose a bag of tools outside may be accounted as unfortunate; but to lose a spider inside sounds more like carelessness. Maybe Homer Simpson's on board? Lets hope the inanimate carbon rod comes through E

I was really curious about how zero gee would effect a web and looking forward to the result. Now I'm left wondering how disturbing it would be to have a creepy crawly critter wandering freely about the space station. Personally it would freak me out every time I had to suit up. Is that random itch on my ankle just an itch or is it the not really missing but instead can't be found arachnid?

You know, you really need to get out more.

*No, she needs it in a bit more.*

camille65 -> RE: Boris (the spider) (11/21/2008 7:26:12 PM)
In.... out.... they're both good [:D]. How can you not be curious about how a web is spun in zero gee??
