If you simply had a fiction board, you could close all the boards in the section "Politics"  |

| During the 'Space Race' NASA spent millions of dollars designing a pen that astronauts could use in weightless conditions; Russian cosmonauts used a pencil !. |

science fiction is where all the inventions are made from
for instance even though the russians used a pencil and the yanks made a pen, this in itself is an accomplishment. the technology made that defied gravity is amazing and in the future it could be applied/lead to something else. |

I hate to break the news to you but there's no gravity up there! It's more a case of technology that attempted to defy the LACK of gravity.
I'll bet the Yanky ballpoints worked well upside down!  |

Huh? If it's now 5:30pm in Cyprus then shouldn't that be around 1.30am in Australian eastern states? (+8 hours)
