ummm... did nobody take particular note of the link I provided above?<br /><br />I'd say an undergraduate zero gravity research program like the one at Perdue is a likely suspect for the cat video. (Can't you just imagine a sophomore engineering student offering up a hypothesis on the sticky qualities of cat claws compared to Velcro?)<br /><br />The pictures don't show up on the link (which apparently dates to 2004), but there is also a reference to "Jennings the Cat" near the bottom of the page. Whether it is the same cat, one does not know -- but the reference certainly caused <i>my</i> eyebrows to raise, somewhat like cat whiskers.<br /><br />How many different zero-g cats can there be out there?<br /><br />The Perdue kids take all sorts of things onto those planes. According to the web page, they have up to 50 groups doing zero-g stuff any given year.<br /><br />Of course, if they <i>were</i> the ones responsible for abusing the poor cat in the video, that'd be one less thing to lay at NASA's door. <div class="Discussion_UserSignature"> <font color="#0000ff"><strong>Just tell the truth and let the chips fall...</strong></font> </div>
