Cat in zero gravity
December 28th, 2007
In the 60s, space travel fired the imagination of the planet. People envisioned exploring new worlds, holidaying on the moon and commuting through the asteroid belt. Now, forty years on, where have we got up to? Answer: a group of scientists throwing a cat in zero g. Really struggling to see the real world applications of this one, guys…
I’d like to see the funding proposal for this one. I imagine it goes something like this:
OBJECTIVE: Take the parabolic flight aircraft up for a spin, and throw Henderson’s cat around.
HYPOTHESIS: Dunno, seems like a fun thing to do. Plus, I hate cats.

Life imitates art. Or, at the very least, science imitates a webcomic:
