    I'm sick of this NASA backpeddling. The thing upstairs in my bathroom is a Colbert. C.O.L.B.E.R.T.'s are the thing OK Go filmed their video on.

    I wonder if it's a vertical treadmill like a buddy of mine tested during a short stint when he was involved in a NASA experiment where his body was kept horizontal for 2 or 3 months straight. Check out the video of him running on the treadmill on this page:

    If my body were ever held horizontal for 2 - 3 months straight, Angelina Jolie better be someway involved in the experiment.

    @Serolf Divad: Her involvement would be "blog commenter strapped to a bed for ninety days to see if Angelina Jolie cared enough to notice".


    The results came back that she did not.

    Usually there's a belt harness on the other treadmills I've seen in videos. But they could just plant their feet on it and let it spin them ass over teakettle.

    Correct me if I am wrong, but is it the Stephen Colbert Treadmill, or C.O.L.B.E.R.T, or the Stephen Colbert C.O.L.B.E.R.T? Damn you NASA. Making me so upset I might blow a blood vessel when I use the Colbert later.

    @Kaiser-Machead: On a serious note, I'm going to take a wild guess and say that the resistance is probably both something the astronaut uses to press him/herself down on the treadmill, as well as some resistance in the wheels, much gravity treadmills that use no motors.

    NASA made themselves look like complete asses with the vote thing. Why even bother having a vote if you're going to ignore the results?


    It should have been "Colbert", but even if they dismissed that, they should have chosen the second pick, not the eighth.

    Can't name it Kaiser, because of the whole Kaiser Wilhelm association, but I was thinking more along the lines of Ether, as in the Greek mythological personification of the "upper air", space and heaven.

    A space module named Colbert would sound retarded. In fact, the whole contest sounded stupid. This sort of thing should've been only limited to grade school children.


    Well. Considering how the module is a life support system/waste management module, I think Tranquility was an excellent choice.
