Drunk Driving on Spacecraft? Astronauts deny LWI

Launching While Intoxicated?

A report in an aviation magazine that NASA astronauts have flown the space shuttle while intoxicated on at least two occasions was vehemently rejected by an attorney for the unnamed astronauts as “just another example of spacial profiling.”

“Astronauts are different than mainstream Americans,” said the unnamed attorney. “They look different, they dress different, they talk different…and because of the stereotypes, people discriminate against them.”

The alleged cases of LWI, Launching While Intoxicated, have brought intense media scrutiny to the already beleaguered space agency.

NASA insiders, none of whom would go on the record with their remarks, said they’re surprised that the incidents did not come to light sooner.

“The space shuttle was weaving in and out of the clouds, slowing down, speeding up,” said one source, “Everyone at mission control had his fingers crossed, and we’re just grateful that there’s not much to bump into at 70,000 feet. Those guys were at least three sheets to the wind.”
