Aviation Week & Space Technology reported on its Web site that a special panel studying astronaut health found that on two occasions, astronauts were allowed to fly after flight surgeons and other astronauts warned they were so drunk they posed a safety risk.

I’m not condoning their actions BUT, Holy cow! They’re blasting off in a rocket ship to outer space not knowing if they will make it safely or not!

Cut them a little slack. How about a compromise? Maybe just a mini bar on board?
