Meet the Nasalnaut
Roland Piquepaille writes "George Aldrich works at NASA and is not an astronaut. Instead, he's a 'master sniffer.' He tests everything that goes up in space on the shuttle or on the ISS for smelliness, from tennis shoes to teddy bears, and from refrigerators to socks or mascara. Why? Because things smell different in spacecrafts which experience a full day/night cycle every 90 minutes. And bad odors into a spacecraft can even lead to the abortion of a mission, like it happened to a Russian mission back in 1976. Wired Magazine tells us more about NASA's nasalnaut, a man whose colleagues call "Most Smella Fella" and has performed 771 flawless smelling missions. This overview contains more details and selected excerpts from a previous interview with Aldrich given to New Scientist. It also includes a picture showing how the NASA's nasalnaut smells things."
you smell like shit, faggot.
dumbass piece of shits wasting our taxdollars. MAYBE i could see 1 person doing this, but a staff of 26?
FUCK NASA and their Military-industrial complex cronies milking us for everything.
How does it smell?
I recently bought the $1,500 unit to simulate smells over the internet. I let the unit on while browsing slashdot and was fooled into visiting the goatse.cx site. To my utter horror I saw and smelt the must sweet and beauitful odor. It was a combination of a rotten corpse and colostomy bag smell.
wow, i bet you even swallow when those guys cum in your mouth.
Slashdot trolls YOU!
