re: Exactly how well do you suppose Shatner’s space flight will go this week?

James Tiberius Kirk will live in infamy, Billy Shatner’s 90 y.o. arse will need Kevlar diapers & a new toupee by weeks end. I’m jealous.

Sure hope he survives but if not, at least he dies in "space."
Sadly our technology is nothing.

Shatner at liftoff

The dude doesn't look 90

Astronauts pull 3 g’s at liftoff. William Shatner is 90 years old. What are the chances he strokes out?
3GS is nothing, you can pull 3GS in s single engine Cessna , the most noticeable effect is lifting your arms becomes more of a effort.

Fair enough. But my point is specifically to Shatner, a 90 year old, who until very recently wasn't exactly a steely-eyed missile man, but a schlubby sci-fi actor.
(I ask this knowing full well that he has received at least *some* screening for this mission. But I just can't imagine that he is the optimal guy for such exertion.)

I love this place.

Pretty sure he's already done Kobayashi Maru and Safegulf. IDK about his TWIC status.

Well, I guess it would really be his final frontier then

Whoever is in charge of the flight will probably screw something up, forcing Shatner to take command and save the day.
