I wonder what this post has to do with the recent Althouse pearl that "we also do a lot of terrible — and often sexual — things to ourselves." On second thought, no I don't wonder.
I've read about people impaled on the ground from urine icicles jettisoned from airplanes. What a way to go. I'll take the golden shower thank you very much!
Ahhhh... nothing like the coarsening of modern society by the ready, unambiguous, and unembarrased discussion of the scatalogical. Good job Telegraph.co.uk. Good job.
The reality, I suspect, is that it all burned up on reentry. If there were indeed glowing streaks, that was exactly what it was, the stuff burning up upon reentry.
Poor jerks! A couple of months ago the Space Station urine recycler was announced to much fanfare, then broke down in a few days. Meanwhile the advocates of manned space exploration are talking about moon bases where everything is recycled and a mission to mars where everything is recycled, crops are grown. Meanwhile they don't even have the ability to distill water out of piss reliably while huddled inside the Earth's magnetosphere safe from all that nasty cancer-causing, cataract-causing radiation they will encounter if they ever go anywhere...which they also have no clue what to do about, either.
Sad times for NASA as far as manned space exploration goes...but the best of times for robotic, nearly perpetually working and lasting spacecraft and rovers, with sensors far better than human senses..

Are you telling me that the drizzle that was falling this morning, wasn't rain?
I thought it was the WON streaking across the firmament bringing the Sun with Him.
Don't dump your waste in space and tell me that it's raining.
Urine Major, the big beer.

I speak for all prostatically-challenged Americans when I say: GOOD FOR THEM!!!
Wasn't it Euripides who wrote in his Greek comedy that the rain was "The Gods pissing thru a sieve"?
I tweeted about this 2 weeks ago.
Welcome to Barack Obama's America, where the government literally pisses on you.
Heh.

So that was the constellation Urion?
Are we sure it was just urine?
Ann, do you need to add add a "Poopie" tag?
Inquiring minds and all that ;->
Golden showers fill your eyes
Icicles falling from the skies
Urinating spacemen don't be blue
Just be glad it's not number two

Conversations With A Cosmonaut

Cosmonaut: "Houston, we have a problem."
Houston: "What's the problem?"
Cosmonaut: "Look out below!"

"So that was the constellation Urion?"
Yes, just 10 degrees above Uranus.

Beautiful. Front page material if there ever was.
We need a drummer in this room.
@Pogo
Meant to be sung to "Golden Slumbers"?

@BH
My understanding is that the streaks were light from the sun reflected off of the peecicles.
@bagoh20, what do you call a person who hangs around with real musicians?
The drummer.
(the other kev)
@Big Mike, and what do you call a real musician without a girl friend?
Homeless.

With the great void in-between known as The Taint.
