    Have you had any close calls/accidents while in orbit?

    I was blinded by contamination in my spacesuit during my 1st spacewalk. It was the anti-fog used on my visor, took about 30 minutes for my eyes to tear enough to dilute it so that I could see again. Without gravity, tears don't fall, so they had to evaporate. No way to rub your eyes inside the helmet.

    What's your fondest memory at Harvard?

    I decided that I would be different and never attend any class I was signed up for but always attend a class I wasn't signed up for. This worked out in a funny way when the final exam for a Combinatorics class (which I signed up for) was given at the same table as my Brain studies class (which I attended and did not sign up for). My friends from Brain studies thought it was very strange that I sat on the wrong side of the table and took the Combinatorics exam even when I was the most vocal student in the Brain class.

    If a taco and a burrito are traveling near the speed of light and collide, will the result be delicious?

    The result would be an explosion large enough to destroy a small village. high speed collisions do that, whether or not they are made of Mexican food.

    […] What’s something your teachers did for you while you were in school that helped to encourage your ideas and thinking?

    The best teacher I ever had was my elementary school principal. Our math teacher quit for some reason and he decided to sub in himself for math and accelerate the syllabus by a year.

    We had to work like the house was on fire for the first half of the lesson and do extra homework, but then we got to hear stories of when he was a soldier in WWII. If you didn't do the work, you didn't get to hear the stories. Everybody did the work.

    The tight cluster of 42 engines of the ITS Booster (cool number!! 😉) has created speculation on this sub […]

    It had to be 42 for important scientific and fictional reasons!

    The dense packing is just to max out thrust to weight, but it would be cool if there was a virtual nozzle side effect.

    What is the most funny prank that you've pulled?

    u/andymbrit, I get asked that everywhere. I have pulled so many hundreds of pranks; I pull pranks almost every day! So I can't come up with one funniest prank. Sometimes I like to talk about early ones; when I was so young, how could I have thought of it.

    I did like the one where I put a little ticking electronic metronome in a school locker, back when very few people could build such things as a ticking metronome; and I had it rigged so that when you opened the locker, a little tinfoil switch caused the ticking to speed up.

    […] I found out recently that you have played/play World of Warcraft. Are you excited for the WOW movie and do you still enjoy playing WOW?

    I have not played WOW in probably 5 years! Yes, I used to play. I played a LOT. I was in a guild, I led raids, I was a pretty badass mage. I had multiple characters. I was a frostmage, I think, by the time I stopped playing? But no, I stopped playing when everyone started having children. I was level 70, I quit at level 70, before the expansion pack.

    A: Coffee.
