Astronaut sends first tweet from space!
« on: January 23, 2010, 09:04 AM »
Astronaut T.J. Creamer is tweeting from space and taking questions. He lists his address as: ÜT: 29.585495,-95.107821 (what, no Star Date on these tweets?)

Follow him here:  http://twitter.com/astro_tj

What a waste of Billions and Billions of dollars!

Oh, I forgot, they are NOT REALLY in space; just on a soundstage in Houston.

lmfao, i am sure, by now, they are in space, but i see where your coming from

What a waste of Billions and Billions of dollars!

Really cant disagree, can't really say that its such a big technical breakthrough, even if they are in space, all that should mean is they get a clearer signal, after all, they are a hell of a lot closer to the satellites haha.

Does it matter where the tweet comes from?
