NASA Space Station Room To Be Named After Stephen Colbert?

Filed under: Wacky, Tacky & True > Etc. > Stephen Colbert

colbert-space-station.jpg

And the new room at NASA's international space station shall be dubbed…Colbert?

Was NASA not aware of the influence of comedian Stephen Colbert?

When the space agency asked the public to write-in suggestions for the new room, Colbert urged Colbert Report audiences to nominate his name.

"Colbert" beat NASA's pick of "Serenity" with 230,539 votes.

NASA, however, ultimately reserves the right to veto the public. NASA will decide in April and spokesman John Yembrick says they will give top vote-getters "the most consideration."

We want Colbert!

    Re: Sensitivity – what's the deal on this site anymore?

    Harry gets canned, and the weirdos aren't locked up. It's getting so you can't even insult Mario without some strange-o coming out of the woodwork…

    Re: Mike_Rotch – nah, i think his commodore 64's are crashing…

    Re: Major Dude salutes Harry – almost like someone has access to this site other than Mario.I wonder if mario even reads these half the time..

    Re: BBBoricua – Hi BBB!! What up???



  23. 23

    Re: Sensitivity – no, I don't thin he does anymore…

    he's famous now you know… that whold One Night in Austin with douchebag Kanye, who he insults on a regular basis, then kisses his ass…

    love this contradictory bitch!



  24. 24

    Stephen Colbert is my hero.



  25. 25

    Perez, it's amazing how you managed to almost completely plagiarize yet another story directly from the AP. This was a top headline yesterday on Yahoo, you fat fuck, and the last paragraph is almost verbatim. You're pathetic.



  26. 26

    a lot of people were voting for Serenity in reference to a cult TV show aired awhile ago on FOX called "Firefly". On the show, the spaceship is called Serenity, so it made sense to a lot of people.



  27. 27

    Re: Sensitivity – Hello, Sensitivity! Good to see you! Everything's fine! Hope you are O.K. too!



  28. 28

    Re: Major Dude salutes Harry – I hear ya….it's gotten lamer!

    Re: Major Dude salutes Harry – agree! he probably drew many sets of balls on Kanye's chin!



  31. 31

    Re: BBBoricua – good to hear that and all ok here too!!



  32. 32

    NEXT



  33. 33

    Can't imagine NASA will choose 'Colbert". They should, though, .. he won the vote, fair and square! He's hilarious and has the best writers on TV.

    Re: perezsunderwearareallshitstainedonthefro – LOL THE JADE ESTATE THATS A G1….

  35. Hole says – reply to this


    35

    Re: perezsunderwearareallshitstainedonthefro – And how do you know this? I can't imagine her estate is even worth all that much. There are higher profile people that get slammed here…maybe you are on to something because Harry's comments sometimes were over the top and maybe it reflected bad on the site. Mine was pretty bad…but true



  36. 36

    is this your's and teddy's happy hour? dismount the dog and put something new up!



  37. 37

    Why Stephen Colbert? John Stewart rocks!

  41. 41

    ONTD posted this yesterday. Maybe if you weren't so busy with petty self-promotion, you would be on this stuff sooner.



  42. 42

    Serenity is the name of the spaceship in the movie titled, "Serenity" by Joss Whedon who is famous for creating Buffy the Vampire Slayer.

    It's one of the best sci-fi movies of all time and it only came out a couple years ago….go buy it for like 6 bucks at Best Buy!!!

    I just read that John mayer is planning a lawsuit with a major celebrity blog website as well as a high profile magazine about reports that he is cashing in on his breakup with Jen Anniston by writing a tell all book…hmmm I wonder who that could be?



  49. 49

    Re: RedWingsFan – it sucks, I'm looking for something more fun… will advise if I find it….

    Re: Sensitivity – Since Harry is banned wouldn't it be great if he started his own celebrity gossip blog with news and funny stories and "camel toe" posts, and reader photo contests etc… Harry is brilliant and funny. :-)
