I got the point of course ;-) But, as a space scientist, I would like to point out that asteroids impacting a galaxy makes no sense. It is not that it is unimportant; it just makes no sense.

Indeed I learned something. But would anyone care to explain what "asteroid impacts in the Andromeda Galaxy" means ?

Well, Belgians (even catholic ones) weren't particularly impressed by his visit and despicable statements. The local press coverage is (almost) unanimously critical, as it should be.

Is it a spacewalk when the feet didn't even leave the capsule?

Is that me or was the Polaris Dawn mission absolutely boring? 2 astronauts making comments on how well they can move their wrists with half their body out of the capsule. Are we supposed to be impressed?

To be fair, close up fly-bys of Io weren't part of the initial plan neither. It's a perk of the extended mission.
