I've just finished an interview with the bear, here are some of his answers:<br /><br />Favourite astronaunt?<br /><br />"Jim Wetherbee - he has all the bare nessesities needed and his surname reminds me of honey."<br /><br />Why is your flight suit silver? Why not the current Orange suit?<br /><br />"Well have you tried catching Salmon in a bright orange suit, no chance mate. I don't want to go hungry!"<br /><br />Favourite Shuttle manager quote?<br /><br />"If you go down to the pad today, you're sure of a big surprise....cause today's the day the engineers have their tanking test."<br /><br />Thoughts on the upcoming RTF?<br /><br />"Well, I hope we launch soon. Of course, Ice Debris concerns are potential showstoppers, but I'm hopeful that recent DVR reviews point to towards an ability to dismiss that as a concern that will be eliviated to a point - via heater mods and assent photography - that assures us that we're RTFing as safe as possible."<br /><br /><br />Needless to say the last answer was surprising...............for a bear <img src="/images/icons/wink.gif" />

Cute! Why did they not sell those when I was in Florida? And why does everyone put down my awesome 3 dollar bracelet of DOOM? :p

It's only just come out....a wife of a USA worker mailed me the option of having some sent over. They are $10 each and for charity. <br /><br />I've asked for a link to a store, if they are for sale over the net.

No mentions of bracelets, STS-114, and doom in the same sentence, please. <img src="/images/icons/wink.gif" /><br /><br />Actually SRTF, if you get a follow-up with the bear, can you please ask if NASA will be re-naming their space rations as 'Picnic Paks' or similar? <img src="/images/icons/laugh.gif" /> <div class="Discussion_UserSignature"> <p><em><font size="2" color="#ff0000">Who is this superhero?  Henry, the mild-mannered janitor ... could be!</font></em></p><p><em><font size="2">-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------</font></em></p><p><font size="5">Bring Back The Black!</font></p> </div>

It'll have to wait. The newly released Space Shuttle Bear Status Update has the following news:<br /><br /> />STS-114:<br /><br />RTF Bear is currently in sleep mode in Col. Eileen Collins' bed. Bear suitup is scheduled for 8am EST. <br />For more details, log on to www.nasa.gov/bears<

Of course, I suspect the bear would also not be permitted in lab or manufacturing areas, as it is no doubt made of unapproved materials. <img src="/images/icons/smile.gif" /> <div class="Discussion_UserSignature"> <p> </p><p><font color="#666699"><em>"People assume that time is a strict progression of cause to effect, but actually from a non-linear, non-subjective viewpoint it's more like a big ball of wibbly wobbly . . . timey wimey . . . stuff."</em>  -- The Tenth Doctor, "Blink"</font></p> </div>

Says that the page has been moved or isn't available. Maybe it just isn't up and running yet? I would love to get bears for my nieces and nephews for xmas, so I'll try again later. I think they are much cuter than the bracelets.<br /><br />Rae

The nasa.gov link was part of a joke <img src="/images/icons/smile.gif" /> NASA.gov doesn't sell anything.
