1) Walk into toy store
2) Buy Buzz Lightyear
3) Put onto space shuttle
Seriously... lets not make this into a big project. - zaldoe, on 06/01/2008, -4/+40"To infinity and beyond!"
- mark076h, on 06/01/2008, -1/+31i am going to give you credit and digg this up because it is not a negative comment towards MrBabyMan
- DonSlice, on 06/01/2008, -26/+47It's not news. It's MrBabyMan.
- MemorableName, on 06/01/2008, -5/+26I hear they're putting Woody in the cockpit
- fletcherrr, on 06/01/2008, -0/+19exactly how much "teaming up" is involved to get a toy onto the ISS?
- xdevit, on 06/01/2008, -0/+19Let me guess.
NASA buys a $20 Buzz Lightyear from a toy store... Then submits an invoice for $20,000,000.
That picture brought a smile to my face for some reason. Shows a lighter side to NASA. - otis12, on 06/01/2008, -0/+18Woody gets left out once again :(
- Murdats, on 06/01/2008, -0/+16"can we have a buzz lightyear figure to send into space?"
"sure"
"GO TEAM!!" - KibblesnBitts, on 06/01/2008, -0/+13That's nice, but did they ever get to fixing the bathroom?
- inactive, on 06/01/2008, -0/+11Take me instead!

- tehWhisp, on 06/01/2008, -1/+11With Toy Story being one of my favorite movies as a kid, dugg.
- Murdats, on 06/01/2008, -0/+10"should we spend $5 and a few minutes on sending up a buzz lightyear figurine or $500,000,000,000 and a couple of decades on building a moon base, you only get to choose one!"

- inactive, on 06/01/2008, -1/+8Can we watch him burn up upon re-entry?!?!?
- monsterCable, on 06/01/2008, -0/+7We heard that your bathroom is broken. Would you like to play with Buzz instead?

Did not realize you could actually buy the stuff. Funny how they use the slogan "It's got what plants crave!" - Amadeus2490, on 06/01/2008, -2/+6Buzz Lightyear reportedly exclaimed "***** you; i'm getting IN the International Space Station; there's a much lower chance of burning/melting that way."
- inactive, on 06/01/2008, -0/+4Lets keep him in the part which breaks away and goes into the atmosphere...
- badboys213, on 05/31/2008, -16/+20NASA - subsidiary of The Walt Disney Company and The U.S. Government
- punkcat, on 06/01/2008, -0/+4"This is an educational program designed to inspire children's interest in space and celestial discovery."
translated "advertise Disney's franchises." - rentmitchum, on 06/01/2008, -0/+4Re-entry is basically falling with style.
- NickMansfield, on 06/01/2008, -0/+3 I wonder how much the fuel will cost to transport that toy up there.
- rentmitchum, on 06/01/2008, -1/+4I can't believe this wasn't the first comment, I clicked and thought "The first comment has to be "To infinity and beyond!".. I am so sad.
- ripple123, on 06/01/2008, -0/+3its not flying, its falling, with style.
- cdigioia, on 06/01/2008, -0/+2I hope Disney is paying NASA for this.
- slightlygifted, on 06/01/2008, -0/+2disney somehow is gonna market the ***** out of this.
- AzleGamer, on 06/01/2008, -0/+2Yes, they corrected the issue. http://www.nytimes.com/2008/05/28/science/space/28 ...
On a related note, they'll be getting a replacement in the Fall - csm888, on 06/01/2008, -0/+2For gods sake, if you kids don't like the toys you buy them just take it on the chin, instead of trying to palm it off as a company expense!!
- matt.rubin, on 06/01/2008, -0/+1I am buzz lightyear beeeep I come in Peace. Buzz Lightyear to the rescue. To infinite and Beyond.
- inactive, on 06/01/2008, -6/+7Buried for MrBabySpam.
- DeFex, on 06/01/2008, -0/+1i found one of those on the street. it was a bit smashed so its just a sound generator now
- Ex3poo, on 06/01/2008, -4/+5Why cant we take President Bush to the Internation Space Station, and just leave him, with the russians.
- ep53, on 06/01/2008, -0/+1Care to volunteer?
- kickcows, on 06/01/2008, -0/+1what about zurg? that's who i'm holding out for. ;)
- j0nnyDiGITAL, on 06/01/2008, -1/+2Hey-ohhhhh
- Krumm, on 06/01/2008, -0/+1They were saying that the weight of the shuttle was carefully calculated, and that they may not be able to ship the spare parts.
If I was up there and they sent me a buzz lightyear to play with whilst I was peeing into bags because the toilet was broke I'd be...well...pissed off.
Glad to hear they are getting the parts they need, a replacement is scheduled, and they get something to have a laugh with. - Ex3poo, on 06/01/2008, -0/+1lol i could imagine stepping on and looking @ the 2 russians saying "Hey Hey, I dont want any trouble"
- n3tfury, on 06/01/2008, -1/+2did anybody else think "whoop-de-*****-do"?
- Bakebehe, on 06/02/2008, -0/+1This is brilliant product placement.
- craiginct, on 06/02/2008, -0/+1What about poor Wall-E - if he can't get NASA to notice him, who'll see the movie?
- slightlygifted, on 06/01/2008, -0/+1replace "sure" with "2mil"
- mos6507, on 06/01/2008, -0/+1One small step for a space agency, one giant leap for irrelevance.
