      This shouldn’t be omitted from the meme. Astronauts are some of the most level-minded people in this world, given the risks they face every moment.

      I don’t think jealousy or insecurity would be a common occurrence given how busy they are.

        There are exceptions to the whole level minded thing.

              Well she says she did not use them (I guess just shitting in place)

              “She drove her husband’s car 900 miles (1,400 km) from Houston, Texas, to Orlando, Florida, to confront Shipman. Early police reports stated that she wore Maximum Absorbency Garments during the trip, but she later denied this.”

              From Wikipedia, but it must be noted the trip was made by herself in such a short time that poop had to happen.

                  From what I remember about the trip, she would not have had time. It was a road trip that made the cannonball run look tame.

        Actually, there was a high profile and notorious case of a female NASA astronaut and Naval officer named Lisa Nowak, who was placed on trail and convicted of felony burglary and misdemeanor assault charges. This all stemmed from an affair she was having with a fellow astronaut named Bill Oefelein, who both of them were married to different people at the time.

        When Bill decided to call the affair off and started to see another woman, an Air Force Captain named Colleen Shipman. Lisa had an emotional breakdown and after her own marriage had failed. Planned on possibly kidnapping Colleen. She was eventually arrested at Orlando International Airport that she had followed Colleen to. Besides the criminal convictions listed above, she was dismissed from NASA and demoted in rank and forcibly retired from the Navy.

      It’s probably fully recorded. Everything in and out.

      That way if there’s a mishap it’s possible to go back and reconstruct the entire sequence or to replay high fidelity simulations of the network traffic at the equipment to reproduce problems.

        Yup:

        The claims were later found to be false, and McClain was cleared.[28] On April 7, 2020, Worden was indicted on two charges of making false statements.

      There was also the hole drilled in the ISS. AFAIK, nobody was ever held responsible but it was definitely vandalism at least.

        Was it ever confirmed to be intentionally drilled? Last I heard, they were still in the “it could have simply been a piece of space dust moving insanely fast” part of the investigation.
