Didn't the use to put the astronauts into quarantine for a few days prior to launch. It avoids hangovers and the flu, in space.

Yuri Gagarin was rumored to be drunk when he took the famous flight.

Yes, but he's also Russian which disqualifies this fact as extraordinary.

A rocket like that has almost zero pilot control.

In fact, for the longest time, astronauts were 100% payload. Now they're 99% payload.

I mean I'd imagine the launch is quite a sobering experience. Might actually be a good thing to pre-game to relax a bit considering your strapped to a controlled bomb.

People who rely on substance abuse to cope with stress are probably disqualified from being astronauts.

I swear I'm tempted to respond with this every single time I see this person lol, but it'd probably get annoying after a while if I did

either way, I would deflect the compliment to Lemmy! My username is in honor of Lemmy rescuing us from the R-word.
