An injured bat decided to go for a ride on the space shuttle. Okay, it didn’t know it was going for a ride, but people are saying that it was injured, so it probably needed a lift anyway. Sadly, this little guy probably froze to death while shooting for the stars.

Everyone knows that Japanese technology is light years ahead of everyone else. I swear, those guys are living in the future. Right now, they’re working on an astronaut toilet that is worn at all times. It takes care of waste removal and cleanup.
Quote from CraziestGadgets:
When the astronaut has to go, sensors automatically turn on a rear-mounted suction hose to remove the waste. Then an automatic washer and dryer cleans you up.
Rear-mounted suction hose? Sounds sexy! Now let’s start working on a version for old folks homes and hospitals. After Japan finishes designing theirs- in five years.
Guess I’ll have to work on mastering time travel if I want to see this invention any time soon. I’ve almost got it worked out- right now I can travel into the future at the rate of one second per second without even trying.

It takes 40 minutes for internet signals to reach Mars, so that is an important consideration… that means there will be no xbox live for you gamers out there. Also, you’ll have to live on algae. Yum! It’s like sushi, but without the fish and rice. By the way, have you noticed that it is the first of April?
