A little gem from 2021 I (partially) drew whilst hungover. :𝑏
Didn't the use to put the astronauts into quarantine for a few days prior to launch. It avoids hangovers and the flu, in space.
Yuri Gagarin was rumored to be drunk when he took the famous flight.
Understandable. Dude was the first, I'm sure his odds at the time warranted a few shots.
His odds were good,actually ; despite the near-constant rumours around the USSR space program, Korolev did his best to make sure the launch was safe as it could get.
Rest assured, I'm in agreement. I'm just joking that the dude who was the first to use an explosion to leave the planet might have some nerves that needed calming.
Yes, but he's also Russian which disqualifies this fact as extraordinary.
He probably mistook vodka for water, give him a break
I mean I'd imagine the launch is quite a sobering experience. Might actually be a good thing to pre-game to relax a bit considering your strapped to a controlled bomb.
People who rely on substance abuse to cope with stress are probably disqualified from being astronauts.

I swear I'm tempted to respond with this every single time I see this person lol, but it'd probably get annoying after a while if I did
either way, I would deflect the compliment to Lemmy! My username is in honor of Lemmy rescuing us from the R-word.
Hear, hear!
On the plus side, you can't barf lying on your back facing upwards with 6G.
You probably can, but it'll kill you.
Waterboarded by vomit. Vomitboarded. Yikes.
At least it's your own vomit.
There’s always an optimist. Thanks for that ;)
We shall call it the Hendrix.
Oh gosh, please no
A rocket like that has almost zero pilot control.
In fact, for the longest time, astronauts were 100% payload. Now they're 99% payload.
