Former astronaut to lead starship effort


	Quote: The Pentagon's premiere research agency has chosen a former astronaut to lead a foundation that is designed to take humanity to the stars. The Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (Darpa) and Nasa are sponsoring the project, known as the 100-Year Starship.

http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/science-environment-16427876

The good bit:


	Quote: Since leaving Nasa, Jemison has been involved in science education programmes, and is known as a space travel enthusiast and long-time Star Trek fan.

Because, people, Star Trek fans really know what’s needed for space travel. Mini skirts and clingy body suits. :lol:

Deanna Troi was far better looking IMHO.

And when they put her in that long blue dress, she just got better.

If one is diving so close to the limits that +/- 1% will make a difference then the error has already been made.

Kind of prefer the older photo. If she'd been talking to me wearing that outfit, she probably wouldn't have needed to read my mind.
