    Raccoons are usually docile, but experimentation has proved they get a little feisty when exposed to prolonged weightlessness and Tang.

      Raccoons have hands just like humans, mine use to get in the pantry, open jars of peanut butter, jelly and make sandwhichs.

          I certainly hope the crew will be able to diaper that rascal. Just imagine, racoons on the moon. What was JFK thinking?

            The Tang period was the golden age of Chinese literature and art. Tang poems in particular are still read today.

              The same genius who designed the raccoon space suit. Once the suit was made, you gonna leave him home?

                More fun than a barrel of monkeys...anyway, they already did monkeys. What's more American than a cute little ball of furry total mass destruction? (other than a two year old covered in grape jelly and the remains of a teddy bear).

                Only problem is, with live WMD on board, the space staion could get shot out of the sky. And they still would miss bin Laden...
