    Gerbils In Outer Space

    Protecting the freedom of the human race, many died along the way.....

    The Russian space agency has blasted ten gerbils into space for a 12-day mission to test the possible effects on humans of a flight to Mars.

    Re: Gerbils In Outer Space

    The gerbils may find space preferable to returning to Earth - several are to be dissected upon their return.
    That's like a punch in the gonads isn't it?

    Oh, i see you love it up there, lets just make sure you never get the chance again!

    But i don't quite get what the point of this exercise is..? Most space flights are around 2 weeks i thought? Certainly people stayed onboard Mir for over a month?
