Space Wedding Successful

Posted by michael on from the ground-control-to-major-tom dept.

The Llama King writes "Love transcends all, including gravity, the atmosphere and orbital altitudes. According to this story at the Houston Chronicle, "Yuri Malenchenko didn't let the fact that he's living aboard the international space station stop him from marrying his bride, Ekaterina Dmitriev." The bride was at Johnson Space Center near Houston, while the groom circled 240 miles above her. The honeymoon will have to wait."

    I come here to forget about how horribly lonely I feel...

    I hate to say it, but you're coming to the wrong place. Go somewhere where you're not behind a computer screen. Someplace where there are flesh and blood people. Take classes, go to the gym, join an interest group, volunteer... anything, really.

    As interesting as Slashdot can be, it's no sunstitute for human contact.
