... in my former (pre - retirement) life, I've educated astronauts. Five of my students flew the shuttle, more to the space station.

This is BULLSHIT. Astronauts WANT to fly. My 10 days jaunt has been extended to six months? Lots of food, water, and air? I'm in no danger, lots of productive work to do on the station.... YES!!!!!!

Elmo Musk wanted to be paid for another launch, and the Murrican press gets their Astronautical Engineering knowledge from Lost in Space.
