May 5 2008Whew, I Can Finally Move On With My Life: Boomerangs Will Work Without Gravity
Finally, the weeks old question has been answered. Boomerangs work in space and are not dependent on gravity to work their magic. Say, here's an interesting fact: Did you know that the boomerang was first invented by Crocodile Dundee? It's true. I think this whole boomerang thing leaves a lingering question unanswered though, and that's this: Screw a boomerang, let's throw some damn horseshoes.
UPDATE: Horseshoe smashed instrument panel. Lots of stuff malfunctioning. I think my spaceship knows which way to go, tell me wife I love her very much she knows. Actually, scratch that -- just tell her if she has sex with any other dudes when I'm dead to not bother coming to heaven.

Is that what NASA does? I could have told them the boomerang would still work theres air pressure(Any 3rd grader knows this)...

I really doubt NASA was doing this as a genuine experiment.
Even astronauts need to have fun!
