- notzak, on 06/01/2008, -1/+20Here's a picture of the bus-sized lab that they brought up

"Discovery is also carrying a new pump for the space station's toilet, which needs to be manually flushed several times a day. Until the new commode is installed, the three-member station crew will be free to use the shuttle's toilet, NASA space flight chief Bill Gerstenmaier said." - inactive, on 06/01/2008, -0/+9Space: bringing countries together for one common goal. Our governments can learn a lot from space.
- adml_shake, on 06/01/2008, -0/+7Somehow I don't think it's the Lab the crew is excited about.
- pimpbot1979, on 06/01/2008, -0/+5The Japanese would have flown it themselves but NASA felt they drove the shuttle too slowly.
- dakbonsa, on 06/01/2008, -0/+5I think most of the astronauts in the International Space Station was waiting for the toilet parts rather than a lab..
because they have been using emergency toilet system that basically resembles a plastic bag. - gridbread, on 06/01/2008, -0/+4The half of the lab we're entitled to has the closet with the woman hiding inside.

- junkwheel, on 06/01/2008, -1/+4It would make a great headline if a space shuttle carried a payload to somewhere other than space.
"Shuttle Carries Japanese Lab Into South Dakota" - inactive, on 06/01/2008, -0/+3the hell are you talking about?
- zdiddy85, on 06/01/2008, -1/+4I can't find it but someone shopped up an awesome picture of a 'Roto-Rooter' truck with rockets strapped to it.
- honus, on 06/01/2008, -0/+3So the corrected title should read: Space Shuttle Carries Japanese Lavatory into Space.
Got it. - yersoocrust, on 06/01/2008, -0/+3FTA: "In addition to fluid physics experiments, biomedical research and other microgravity studies, Japan plans a host of cultural activities aboard Kibo, such as dance, art and sculpture. "We're interested in creating a new art expression in space," Junichiro Shimizu, an official with the Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency, said in an interview."
Does being in space really constitute a change in expression? - slightlygifted, on 06/01/2008, -0/+2tentacle porn in space!

- Markers, on 06/01/2008, -0/+2Zing!
- dafragsta, on 06/02/2008, -0/+1They should be learning EVERYTHING from space.
- MrColdheart, on 06/02/2008, -0/+1That one common goal is the strategic advantage of setting up on the moon.
- krasht, on 06/01/2008, -0/+1The news here in Australia are just saying that the space shuttle is going up to fix a toilet. Nothing about a Japanese lab.
- ASSASSYN360, on 06/02/2008, -0/+1I wonder. When the space stations toilet is flushed is it ejected into space? And if so how long will it take to have a ring of space poo around earth...I wonder.
- idleminded, on 06/02/2008, -0/+1Side 7 going up!
- Gadgeteer10, on 06/03/2008, -0/+1Hopefully this means more collaboration between countries which will shift space exploration into a faster gear.
- Namakemono, on 06/01/2008, -0/+1-insert tentacle joke here-
- Markers, on 06/01/2008, -0/+1You tried waaay too hard to make that funny.
- MadEnvoy, on 06/01/2008, -0/+1Giant plunger?
- Markers, on 06/01/2008, -0/+1Wow...
- inactive, on 06/01/2008, -1/+2You mean the Japanese can't make a robot that can make a shuttle to send their own lab into space?
Ha! And I thought the Japanese were ahead of us in technology! - inactive, on 06/01/2008, -0/+1Well the article says different.
- damircea, on 06/01/2008, -0/+0Hope there won't be any problems!
- ceviriburosu, on 10/29/2008, -0/+0Somehow I don't think it's the Lab the crew is excited about.

- Sempramorah, on 06/02/2008, -2/+0この時点で私はすべての周りだけ
時には私の両側に耳にする音
パラレル場所を分かってるんだ
リトル作品を通して感じる出血

今すぐに私にご滞在しないことを決めました。
私は私スタート]ボタンを感じる立ち消えになる
何もかもが先頭どこに属し
私は横に長いする前に
これが続く中で、とを有効にし、上
我々は決して死ぬ
