Explanation:
First, a new truss was added.
Then, new solar panels were installed.
Now, as part of the
planned upgrade of the
International Space Station, an
Expedition 18
astronaut has upgraded her own head.
The Human Extended Analog Device 9000 was attached with only minor delays,
making the astronaut's remaining
spacewalks over 40 percent more efficient.
With the HEAD 9000 attached, an astronaut can now directly access 4 Gigabytes of
computer flash memory with
their
own brain, perform
complex mathematics by "directed
thinking", and play a pre-installed game of
Tetris
at no additional charge.
Happy
April Fools' Day from
the folks at
APOD.
In reality, the space shuttle
Discovery's mission
to upgrade the International Space Station ended Saturday after upgrading only the
space station.
The above
image of astronaut
Heidemarie Stefanyshyn-Piper
handling the box-like Nitrogen Tank Assembly was actually
taken last November.
For some reason, however, Astronaut Stefanyshyn-Piper can now factor 11 digit
prime numbers in her head.
