In Space, No One Knows You Read Vogue

Posted by chrisd on from the space-needs-women dept.

Chad Coffman writes "Salon has quite the story up. It seems Russian astronauts are trolling for supermodels as passengers for their space program." I guess Tito nor Shuttleworth were cute enough for Valery Korzun. May I suggest Courreges or Gaultier for space-suit designer? I'll leave the weight allowance jokes as an exercise for the reader.

  1. Space suits. by Rhinobird · · Score: 1, Redundant

    They'd probably make some sort of custom body-stocking type of pressure suit. Something that simulates air pressure through elastic tension. Then your supermodel would have a very anime looking space suit...now just fix up the hair...has to be spiky and either green or blue. Also they need pointy ears, maybe a tail...whoa momma...I would so follow that mission with an anime supermodel in space...
