while the 7 space cadets are performing their eggsperiments on mission 114, I am in Mercury retrograde studying the "history" of NASA, both at the official web site of NASA, and at the web site and blog of Captain Richard Hoagland - Enterprise Mission. His latest blog entry made me smile, and I trust you also will get a good laugh out of this. I have my own special "relation" with NASA and also with ESA, for reasons I might explain some other day, some of which is actually narrated in some of my free internet books. Anyway, let us look at the time loop and the tale of tiles Capt Hoagland writes about on this moon-mars conjunct moment:
"STS-114 Mission Commander, Eileen Collins, had a curious request fulfilled this "morning" (it was actually last evening, 11:39 PM, July 26th, Houston time ...) -- when Mission Control "uplinked" its first selection of traditional wake-up music for the Discovery crew ... to begin their second day "on orbit":
Before launch, Collins had requested for their first day's wake-up, specific music from the Bill Murry hit comedy of a few years ago, "Groundhog Day."
The "inside joke" was supposed to be that -- by finally launching successfully from Cape Canaveral yesterday morning -- Collins and her whole Discovery crew had "escaped from the NASA-Groundhog Day-type timeloop" that had kept them all "in quarantine since the scrub of their original launch, two weeks ago, on July 13th."
As I watched this "explanation" live over NASA Television from the high desert here in New Mexico, I couldn't help thinking that Eileen Collins was really trying to say something MUCH more profound ... about the entire U.S. Space Program ....
For--
What struck me even earlier yesterday morning, watching the "picture perfect" launch of the first Space Shuttle to climb into orbit in over two and a half years, was that we're ALL stuck in "a NASA-created, Groundhog Day" type timeloop!
And we've been stuck in it ... for over 50 years!"
