lost stuff in space

A few cosmonauts (that's Russian for astronaut) were hanging out at the International Space Station this morning and...well...dropped a few things.

Fyodor and Mikhail were working on the station's new research room and things got slippery. Woops!

What did they drop? They weren't sure. Looked kinda like an attachment fixture. No biggie. They got some wire they can use to attach the new cables. Kinda like a twisty-tie.

Then an hour later, ANOTHER "something" started floating away. Uh-Oh! Butterfingers!

It's a good thing they have plenty of wire up there!

Mikhail: "Oh crackers." (translated from Russian)

Fyodor: "What?"

Mikhail: "Uh...nothing. Hey, you said we got some extra wire, right?"

Fyodor: "Yeah, why."

Mikhail: "Oh...no reason...you might wanna get that extra wire, though. And maybe a twisty-tie."

Phew! Problem solved.

I'm off to learn more Russian.

Enjoy Everything.
