Space Nerds Protest in Times Square For Right to Nerd-Out Over Space Minivan Shuttle

- Space-parking is expensive.
The point of this particular action was to convince NASA to give New York one of three available Space Shuttles (the Yugo, the Starbucks, and the Pillager) to have as a museum piece at the Intrepid Sea-Air-Space Museum, as we say goodbye to the Space Shuttle era (which will one day be known as the Soccer Mom Minivan Era of spaceflight).
Poignantly, the child of one of the nerds (who was dressed as Cillian Murphy's character in Sunshine) said he wanted to be either an astronaut, a paleontologist or a veterinarian when he grows up. He will be none of those things.
