the Columbia command module to bring Neil Armstrong Buzz Aldrin and Michael Collins to a slowed distort and ultimately a safe splashdown in the Pacific Ocean this was given to me by Carl on the occasion of his death so the dudes on his death bed with his friend and he gives him a piece of the cordage that you now have he saw that they were about to throw the parachutes away and stop the

oh good long-lived GMM best wishes Joshua Adams Rocket City Alabama PS your show is a part of my daily routine thanks guys Thank You Joshua yeah that’s that’s uh that’s super cool here’s the thing I I have a couple of other things that were sent into space I can ask you those questions too but I just want to observe what was explored in an episode of a radio lab I think it was called objects are objectified I can’t remember but it was exploring the sentimental value of things maybe was called things anyway they talked about how it’s it’s you can have something this can be special you know the fact that this went into space and now we’re holding it the fact that this was part of an integral system that kept the astronauts falling at the proper rate and landing in the proper ocean in order to tell the tale of being on the proper orbiting moon topper as many moons it is pretty amazing and I do I want to take this I didn’t want to smell it to apologize to Michael Collins the third guy who no one remembers because you probably have gotten that all your life who’s the third guy that’s Michael Collins is he even still alive is Michael Collins still alive somebody look that up if he’s not his ashes along with Gene Roddenberry and Scotty from Star Trek can be sent into space can you really Michael Collins is still alive he said I mean you got a feel for that guy greetings Michael you got a feel for that guy I mean really well he did it man he was he didn’t get out he didn’t get all the money he’s part of history he was doing his job I’m sure he had a good reason for not getting out and he took it for the team true or false the first engine powered flyer made by the Wright brothers went into space okay a part of it yeah true it was aboard the 1969 Apollo 11 boom lunar module it all comes full circle yep we’re from North Carolina this is this play the Wright brothers on the Internet at one point we did both Wright brothers spent so much time making airplanes they never got married and it would have been illegal because they were brothers true or false Golf Club golf club a golf club playing some golf yes the golf club did go into space because somebody hit a golf ball on the moon toward the end of his walk on the moon during Apollo 14 mission astronaut Alan Shepard informed NASA’s Mission Control that he quote happened to have a six iron golf club which he had attached to the handle of a lunar scope or lunar scoop rather he also had some balls then he had balls if you’re gonna be an astronaut after a few unsuccessful swings because of the bulk of his suit Shepard could only use one hand he was able to drive one of the balls quote or ever for miles and miles and miles upon his return to earth Shepard donated the club to the United States Golf Association that’s I’ve always wanted to do something like this fight it’s you a tee hit a golf ball in a weird location Ultima officer I mean in this ship of a cruise ship but on the moon is pretty cool he went for miles and miles miles but it didn’t go on forever because there’s some gravitational pull of the moon of course but if you hit it hard enough if you hit it as hard as Alan Shepard did I didn’t send John Daly to them Sean Daly let’s talk about John Daly is that John Daly do the moon true or false the world’s largest banana wonder if I made this one out I think he probably didn’t why because it doesn’t seem like the kind of thing you’d make it up I did all the plausible scientists have yet to shoot any world breaking sized bananas into the cosmos yet Michael Collins thoughts the first Furby sent into space astronauts have their comfort and astronauts have to find their comfort in Fermi’s astronauts have their comfort I don’t know what that statement meant false let’s move on corned beef sandwich I see that corned beef sandwich how do they corned beef there’s really no corn involved it’s just mr. Sennett in the space where corn me referred to the coarse granular salt used to cure the beef that would be one of the worst things I could imagine if I ordered a corned beef sandwich from someone and I got a corn and beef sandwich they say is this into the moon or not or space yes yes astronaut John Young smuggle mm-hmm a corned beef sandwich in one of the pockets of his suit on board the Gemini 3 what March 23rd 1965 Americans were just supposed to consume consume food from tubes for an experiment so Young was putting himself somewhat at risk for the 5 our mission and screwing up the experiment well astronaut got a stern talking-to but it didn’t have an effect on his career he later landed on the moon during the Apollo 16 mission what cause of 300 they caught him corned beef boy no no no hey corned beef boy they’re going to send you to the moon again what’s that in your pocket huh got a little corned beef in that pocket yeah and that’s it that’s all the ones I have you can send anything to the moon what could you send and don’t say your wife what you asking me yeah three two toenail clippings that way I could be a part of me could be it in space and on earth at the same time you said that because in our space junk song we talked about toenail clippings moving through space as space junk could could cut your head off right at orbital velocity the reacts is the same part of my brain that said of the first time orbital velocity of a toenail could just the cavity decapitate you fact yeah here’s that
