Funny Stories

Post by ISSpaceGirl »

I think it would be really cool if we all could swap funny stories about space camp. I know we all have them, like that time...

But seriously, if you have a story that you think everyone might like to hear, post it here. :D
I have been to space camp four times and i hope to go to adult camp when i am over 21.

I'd forgotten about the injuries during the helo dunker. But whats funny is some of the medical poroblems our Ac counselors gave us. They got a little too creative and gave Everyone STD's i think i had Gonohrea if i'm not mistaken.

Rumor has it that, during the EDM, the counsilors were tell the people on the shuttle during flight, "You have fallen off the ladder are broke your leg." Now, does that seem impossible to anyone other than me?

Your right that doesnt make any sense. If your supose to be in space you wouldnt beable to fall off the ladder and break your leg. Unless maybe you pushed off the ladder to hard and hit the wall the wrong way but even that would be questionable.

Well, it appears the Jasons/the members of the SFMC on this board are in agreeance. Anybody else?

Oh, and on another note, in regards to the helo-dunker, I was talking to someone from my school that went to AC. He said that, the year he went, the ASA people broke the helo-dunker by pressing the button to hard or something.

agree about the ladder and broken leg falling off would not be anissue unless u pushed off too hard which still isnt a possibility because unlike the station bone/muscle deteriation hasnt occured yet

During the second half of our EDM, everything went wrong. First we had a [event] in mission control, where I was. Everyone just about gave up, because everything was [odd]. Then, a little later, our EVA and PROP got shot and died! I guess no one really took it seriously, though, because later they were the ones running the whole thing! They got us in contact with the station and orbiter again!!

Moderator: Welcome to the HabForum...much to the dismay of some here, that's one of the things I prefer not be directly stated, as I would hate to spoil too much of the EDM for anyone who's never gone to ASA. Thanks!

Actually, yours was for quite a good reason!

...but worry not! It is not judging you as a human being. Things that have been taken out have simply been to protect other people reading the board.

Hey, you guys are quick at responding! I was searching for the website for my ASA team, and I found this! I am glad, because I too miss ASA!! I don't think I will be going back either... It's so sad. Marcus, who were your counselors?
