** the sun rises and sets every 90 mins???? can someone explain that?
** imagine being in space on sleeping pills! it's so scary I'd need some propofol if i am ever sent there. but how exhilarating to be awake, i really loved the visuals in the  movie "gravity." I'm sure they choose astronauts with resting heart rates of 50bpm, cuz imagine when you go up there it must be so scary that your heart rate will double, so it would be hundred, which would still be acceptable. i wonder what meds they have in their medical kit.

** i don't have the link to this but i was reading a link the other day about a Russian space mission with geckos to study fertility/sex and they all came back frozen to death!

** which reminds me - my date was weird: i talked about a study on sex and the dude was like "huh?" hedge fund guy.. i should've known he was going to be super-conservative and not get it. hopefully he won't want to see me after this. i hate to prolong this stuff.

watched the response to the first two questions: why ask this dummy these questions. he's never been on a date. he may have sexually abused women but surely this narcissist would know very little about love other than self-love. note the questioner's disenchantment.

it was some guy my family hooked me up with, I told him I was busy and could do only coffee and dessert, so that's what it was.

Sheldon cooper[I do understand he is a TV character :-(] speaks to Raj koothrapalli about this in the big bang theory. Anyway, it has to do with the amount of time it takes the space station to circumnavigate the Earth. it takes 90 mins and hence they see about 15 to 16 of each in a 24 hour period. Google said the same. It sometimes pays to be a BBT junkie.

Is your judgement based on the dating/hookup mindset you seem to carry now?

oh, i don't have much compassion for geckos, lizards and other such creatures. i am reminded of the translucent lizards seen beside tube lights in india. have you encountered those? they gave me the creeps.

as for the sun question, it depends on the time taken by the space shuttle to orbit the earth.
