Clearly this "forbidden fruit" proves that Elon is the devil. :P

Well in some cultures, a Dragon is a form of Serpent ;)

How dare they!  Those apples weren't on the official manifest!   VERY unprofessional!  ;)

Wait and see if it happens again.

It has happened before and it will happen again. Lots of times. You should know that.

Next flight: blind squirrels, nuts, and Kool-Aid!  ;)

When has it happened before by a non NASA in the last 30 years?

Nice sidestep... But to be expected, given your axe to grind in this case. What I meant is that small items not listed on flight manifests have made their way onto spaceflights since the dawn of spaceflight - and will continue to be. Do we need to start listing items? I would have thought you were familiar with spaceflight history. Does it really matter who did it? Astronauts, NASA technicians, or contractors?

But it would also be nice to know --- Do you have access to the official/full flight manifest for this flight? Yes or no?

Are you implying you have evidence that NASA is going to kill SpaceX's COTS contract because of a couple apples?

This party needs a bouncer.
If I like something on NSF, it's probably because I know it to be accurate.  Every once in a while, it's just something I agree with.  Facts generally receive the former.

24 of our astronauts have been born in Ohio.

What is it about that state that makes people want to flee the earth???


Come to think of it, I was born in Ohio and I wanted to be an astronaut when I was a kid.

Hmmm...

Many great sailors come from landlocked areas, my dad for instance. Captain James T. Kirk was from Iowa. It makes sense somehow.
