They would call their little show the "Constellation Urion"..

What do the laws of physics say about the fate of a "Constellation Urion".. Will it continue to follow the capsule or will it's orbit decay and eventually fall to earth.

Not knowing what a Orion was I googled it with this result.

Urban Dictionary: urion
urion - 1 definition - One who likes to listen to people eating.

Would a "constellation Urion" be a fellow astronaut or would it be an ezdropping ground crew?

Great questions and from what I remember from the little bit of Orbital Mechanics?

What goes up....

---------

Wally Schirra (Apollo VI) was the one who coined the term Constellation Urion after they dumped a waste holding tank into space, the water froze and followed the capsule for a while.

It was a play on the Constellation Orion, the Hunter!

Gary,

The answer is inertia. A moving cat will stay moving, until he knocks over something made of glass.


One cat on a Queen size bed?

I have to go to my Biology and Anatomy back ground to answer this.


This is a two foot long, four footed cat?

Two plus four?

That equals SIX feet just the right size for a Queenie. I am a little over six foot tall and a queen sized bed is just the right size for me?

how is it a 10 pound cat can blindly jump up on a table from the floor and land precisely on the only object on that table?

You expect me to know this?

Practice, depth perception and a cat's innate ability and mission to break or disrupt objects on the table and to spread cat hair onto your freshly cleaned or waxed table.

I was almost tripped up with that question.

I have discovered that the amount of noise a swatted object makes on a laminate floor in the middle of the night is directly proportional to how badly you want to go back to sleep

Humidity! Now I have to play weather man! Humid air keeps sound from traveling great distances. The cooler temperatures during the evening and an open door to your room enables sound to bother you, the light sleeper, If you do have a laminate floor in your room? You may have pull it up, get a rug or buy a cat carrier to corral your charges at night.

Whew.....that was tough.
