Could you imagine training all your life to be an astronaut and go into space. You finally get called up to the big leagues. They tell you, you're going to man this new space craft but it's just gonna be a quick trip out an back.

Next thing you know you're barely out of the atmosphere and you start hearing some rattles and clanks. One of your engines goes and you all of a sudden have a structural problem. Now you have to doc at the international space station and try to fix it.

You work on fixing and find out the problem can only be fixed back on earth. Ok cool. You figure no problem we'll hop back on this sardine can and ride it back to earth. Nope! Can't do that. The probability of this piece of junk getting humans back to earth is pretty slim.

Now you find out the whole time you've been off the planet. Congress has been hard grilling Boeing on their inability to make a viable space craft. Even though this one took some where near 11 years longer and quite a bit more money than they anticipated.

I guess my question is... As an astronaut would this be exciting or terrifying? Part of me thinks it would be exciting because you get to stay in space longer than expected. However the sane part of me thinks you might go a bit bonkers realizing you're trapped in space, with no way home and you can't rely on the people that got you there because, well, they didn't really know what they were doing in the first place. Did they?

Hope you enjoy the Sesh!
