NASA Asks the Tough Questions

With the prospect of a manned mission to Mars, NASA is starting to ask the hard questions.

  • How do you get rid of the body of a dead astronaut on a three-year mission to Mars and back?
  • When should the plug be pulled on a critically ill astronaut who is using up precious oxygen and endangering the rest of the crew?
  • Should NASA employ DNA testing to weed out astronauts who might get a disease on a long flight?
  • How do you cope with sexual desire among healthy young men and women during a mission years long?

Yeah, that last question?  Send eunuchs. :)
