      @@krishanubanerjee6955 My Aunt also works for NASA. Let's just say the true horror of space is its emptiness. There is life out there, that is unquestionable due to the simple fact that we exist. The sad part is that we will never get to see alien life with our own eyes. Our machines will likely outlive our species though. Artificial life is the end-goal of evolution itself I'd say. That life may explore the stars if it gets lucky, but humanity as we know it will forever be trapped in this solar system. Interstellar travel is simply too difficult for organic life, and any embryos that are brought to another solar system would likely be modified to suit different ecosystems. In a few thousand years, they would be a separate species, without a doubt. Evolution would naturally diverge and reproduction between humans and 'interstellar' humans would be impossible, not counting the fact that the travel itself would be impossible anyway due to time, resources and radiation, among other issues we haven't even thought of yet.
      But of course there are ENDLESS interesting stories if you like physics or chemistry :)

He's got like 250 patents and some of them, 50 and 60 years old, are nothing but a number and his name. No info about them. The only spontaneous trip he ever took was July 4th, 1947, right after Roswell supposedly happened. He ditched the family and spent 2 weeks of 16 hour days at Sandia National Labs. Why? No idea. I solved a problem in his branch of physics and asked him what I should do with the solution decades ago. "Burn it," he said. "Forget it. You don't want to spend the next 50 years asking the DoD for permission to leave the country and listening to the FBI bug your phone."

      I was super lucky because my grandfather was in the very top tier of physicists, having earned his PhD in the same class with six or eight future Nobel laureate including Oppenheimer and two of my maternal grandparents' semi distant cousins, oddly enough (Pauling and Seaborg). His best friend, my "great-uncle" as most of us kids called him, was Dr Louis Alvarez who figured out and proved an asteroid or comet impact wiped out the dinosaurs, and I got to hear some of these men talking about their careers and experiences in the war. I wish I had been older, old enough to really appreciate the privilege I'd been granted, but my granddad had to stop having reunions by like 1989 or so.
      So many things I'd ask him about.

      I am 71 and trust me, that is NOT a senior's voice. It is the voice of a much younger person trying to do a senior's voice. It's not just the tone and timber of the voice that gives it away, it is the current day expressions used that give it away. The supposedly well educated grandmother mistakenly used the term 'morally' instead of the correct term morality for what she was describing. That would not have happened with a real senior from that era. These are mistakes that are more common today.

      Nah, the orbital mechanics and rocket engineering doesn't check out. A 3 man capsule in orbit for a whole day in 1960? Not happening. And the bit about the capsule drifting off towards the sun is not how orbits work. Lastly, even if the throttle got stuck on the liquid fuel motors and you somehow managed to get into a stable orbit rather than a high apogee parabola, the capsules used separate solid fuel retrorockets to deorbit. In the highly unlikely scenario where the retrorockets ALSO fail, you can use the RCS thrusters to deorbit.
      Just saying, it's a fun story, but it's not a possibility. If there were secret crewed missions, they would have had similar capabilities as the public ones.

    OH MY GOD..... I’m a little freaked out right now, not so much because of this story (definitely freaky), but because the dome light in the car across the street has been flickering on and off by itself. It’s was around 4am and it’s a Sunday morning. I’m sitting outside on the front porch in my sleepy neighborhood, while listening to this story, and practically chain smoking, when the dome light of this car (parked on the street in front of the neighbors house across the street) start purposely flickering on and off. It started about 20-25 minutes into the story. It seemed to be Morse code. After about a minute, I started asking questions out loud, into the thin air- or what ever (or whom ever) was causing this flickering. With every question, it waited until I was finished asking it to reply with flickering. It seemed so purposeful and definitely Morse code like. Short-long-short-short, pause, short, pause, short pause, long-long-short, etc. It went on for about five minutes. I was so dumbfounded by it I didn’t think to film it. Then, about 40-45 minutes in, it started up again. This time it only went on for two, maybe three minutes. It was crazy. No one else is out here. No one else seems to be awake. I don’t think it’s even a new enough car to have key-less entry or anything that could control the light remotely.... And even if it did, car dome lights cannot not flicker like that when a remote is used.
    I’ve witnessed the paranormal several times before, but never while listening to a scary story; which I often do- especially at night, especially outside.

      Faulty wiring be cray-cray. That, or they didn't close the door properly and a light breeze is causing it to barely activate the button that turns the light on when you open the door. Why do people jump straight to paranormal?

    I spotted a mistake at 08:09. If they were facing their morality, they would be facing their ethics and behaviour, I think the writer means they were facing their mortality, meaning they were facing end of their lives,

      True. Although maybe the writers were trying to communicate the fact that the men were losing their sanity, their reasoning. A.K.A., they were facing their own views of morality.

      Love the premise of the story, but could use a revision. Grandma's cursing could probably be reeled in a bit too.

    This was enthralling; I thoroughly enjoyed it. Despite being a creepy pasta, it was so well written that it seemed real; almost to the point of making one question. In my opinion, that's when you know you've got a good story on your hands.
