Letter to Maegraith
Maegraith 2 June 1945 is a letter from J.R.R. Tolkien to his Oxford acquaintance Maegraith, written on 2 June 1945.[1]
- Subject: Comments on stories written by Maegraith, sent to Tolkien.
I ought to have acknowledged your packet at once; but I thought you'd like to have it back soon, with some comment. However, things have been pretty shaky all through May, with an endless series of small extra jobs, exam work and also death. Especially the sudden death of my very dear friend Charles Williams, the author, which has thrown all our little circle into deep mourning[.] Professors, too, seem dying or retiring everywhere, and as I am now (as a survivor) an ?elector or advisor in half a dozen places, I have had a hell of a lot of letters to write.
I don't know that I can do or say a lot that would be helpful, as I am not a professional critic, merely an occasional writer -- and that sort of man is apt simply to feel what he (with his own mode and habits) would have done in such and such a place: not always a good thing in some [sic] one else's work. And in any case, you say you don't want to publish merely to amuse yourself (and friends). Well, in order to say anything, I have to imagine these things as offered for publication and anonymous. On those conditions: I should say that the ideas, general and particular, are good: I mean the general idea of a series of incredible tales told by the old ??? ?major is an excellent link; and the central idea ??racts of the three stories is good for such a series. (???? the BBC ?type ?which a????? "setting" to bring it into line)
But reworking art ?in detail ?must be criticized (as ????? you ???). I should ?no ?select "jerkiness"(your word, I think) or the salient fault. I should say they seemed to me rushed and overheated, rather. Everything is slightly exaggerated -- and to my mind that's not desirable, than require dealing with what is incredible, ______ ______. The major's meanness, though doubtless actually shameless, needs to be a little less obviously thrust in tone. Then in the actual stories the language and expressions (which is telling 'em in theory does not matter: from the point of view of your reader. They're just being told ?to him, by your A. J. Alan) wasn't, to my taste, to be toned down.
I'll by end exemplify all this From the President's ?Spouse, the major piece. This story is I think is overstrained in tone. It would I think be more effective if the colour was laid on thinner. For instance, I should myself knock out ?soulsearing (before bitterness) in p. 2; and similarly ?electric before joy, and ?sim'ly elsewhere; and think of something milder and more clearly pictorial for ?thrashed out ?an epileptic miracle ?in p. 4.
Where you could have let yourself ?yo more, I think was at the end. Those I should have made more ?if ?the lynching, ?and suggested more (or more clearly) that the crowd was given by some horrible sermon ra__ something beyond mere ?embarqed sport. A general weakness of the story, and perhaps the most difficult to surmount is this. The real center of it is the fantastic behaviour of Chamberlain's ball, after Hick's suicide. But Hick's suicide -- I am sorry, but though you may think this makes readers very dull, you must make that point clearer than just dropping the casual word inquest -- has to be caused by an "unfair" defeat.
Very well: but this must not be allowed to _p_il the really exciting final Open match. It does. The thing has become too repetitive. The way out is either (a) to make Chamberlain cheat in some way, (b) --- (better I think) to make the P.Sp??? match much less miraculous. You need one fatal "hole in one" by a fluke to bring on the later terrible retribution of ?endless "holes in one". But you must limit it to one. The P.S match should be won by a ?flirting, but not sh???? impossible hole in one on the last hole.
Two small points of detail: Don't make things incredible in detail in an incredible tale. Hicks and Chamberlain are normal names. _ittersnatchy may be a real name, too, for all I know, but it does not sound like one (even in Scotland). Why not have one that does? Personally I don't believe in "British inconsistency" - For the simple reason that "the British" don't exist, except as in political fiction, and are not a psycological, social or cultural unit. In any case, granting the situation depicted, the psycology is not "inconsistency" but the reverse. The ?tenacity of H. and C. must be supposed to proceed from a worship (typical of certain limited cords in their island) of Sport or Games that places them above their feelings and/or from a consistent ?tenacity of habit.
The Raft story is least to my liking, simply on account of its name; though it is perhaps the least incredible, except in the assumed preservation from death of both the main ?actors. The Ke___l here is I suppose: I was alone for a bit with a naked man on a raft ... What a pity he isn't a gentleman" [It sounds a bit old fashioned to me and I can't imagine such a young woman as you depict ever saying it, but have it your own way: I'm not criticising your psychology or social satire, only the way of your narration]
[[only last paragraph of page 4 included below]]
I am afraid little of this will be legible -- but I've had to scribble at great speed. [illegible sentence] Anyway here's to you, and I hope you'll accept it as a token of friendship. Here's to our next shared pints.

CHAPEL HILL, N.C. (Dec. 10, 2011) – The ETSU women's basketball team wraps up its season-long five-game road swing on Sunday afternoon when the Lady Bucs travel to take on No. 18 North Carolina. Tip time is set for 2 p.m. inside Carmichael Arena.
ETSU (0-9) is coming off an 81-70 loss at Missouri State on Tuesday night, but the Lady Bucs had the preseason Missouri Valley Conference favorite on the ropes. The Blue and Gold held a three-point lead with less than 13 minutes left in the game and only trailed by three with 3:06 remaining in the contest. However, the Lady Bears – who are currently ranked No. 11 in the CollegeInsider.com Mid-Major Top 25 poll – closed the final three minutes on a 12-4 run to capture the 11-point non-conference win.
Red-shirt senior guard Tarita Gordon (Wichita, Kan.) tied a season high with 21 points, while Amy Duke (Hendersonville, Tenn.) added a career-best 12 points off the bench. Sophomores Destiny Mitchell (Bluffton, Ga.) and Shawn Randall (Orlando, Fla.) also provided the Lady Bucs with a spark. Mitchell finished one rebound shy of collecting her first double-double of the season after netting 10 points, while Randall came off the bench to fuel an ETSU run with 10 points as well. As a team, the Lady Bucs made a season-high 30 field goals and tied their season best with a 41.1 shooting percentage in Springfield.
Gordon looks to continue her hot shooting in Chapel Hill as she has raised her scoring average over 12 points during her last three games. The Wichita, Kan. native has scored in double figures in each of the last three games and is registering 17.7 points per game during this stretch. Mitchell has also stepped her game up on this road trip by averaging 9.8 points and 9.3 rebounds in 27.5 minutes of play over the last four games.
The Lady Bucs will face a very long and athletic Tar Heel team on Sunday as North Carolina (6-1) boasts six players over 6-feet tall.
However, North Carolina has been hit with the injury bug as the Tar Heels only dressed eight players last time out in the 95-53 win over Lipscomb on Wednesday night. Senior 6-foot-5 forward Laura Broomfield (foot) and freshman guard Shannon Smith (hamstring) were resting injuries against the Lady Bisons, while sophomore guard Latifah Coleman suffered a season-ending ACL injury last month versus Presbyterian. Tierra Ruffin-Pratt, a 5-foot-10 junior guard, is sitting out the first part of the season after undergoing shoulder surgery in the off-season, while 6-foot-6 junior center Waltiea Rolle is on maternity leave.
As a team, UNC was picked to finish sixth in the ACC, but the Tar Heels currently lead the conference in scoring offense (86.7), scoring margin (+34.0), field goal percentage defense (31.6), assists (19.4), and 3-point field goals made per game (6.4). Despite missing two games with the foot injury, Broomfield is still averaging a double-double (14 points/12.8 rebounds) on the season, while 6-foot-5 starting center Chay Shegog leads the team in scoring (16.0 ppg), field goal percentage (56.0), blocks (14), field goals made (42), and free throws made (28).
Sunday marks the 13th meeting between the two programs, with the Lady Bucs still searching for their first-ever win over North Carolina as the Tar Heels have won the 12 prior meetings, including an 87-47 win last December. ETSU trailed by 13 at the half, but were then outscored by 27 in the second half en route to suffering the 40-point loss. Natalie Pickwell (Kingsport, Tenn.) enjoyed a record night inside Carmichael as she netted then a career-high 21 points on 5-of-10 shooting from beyond the arc. The Lady Bucs are hopeful Pickwell can break out of her shooting woes as the Kingsport, Tenn. native has not made a three-point field goal in her last four games, while averaging less than six points per game and shooting an uncharacteristic 21.6 percent (8-37) from the field during this rough stretch.
Fans unable to make the trip to North Carolina, can access live video, live audio, and live stats all via TarHeelBlue.com.

Roadster by Cartier ... a fresh, non-toothpasty mint, really a dark, subdued mint, which duets with a fresh, green fougere ... excellent quality and versatility ... very good sillage and longevity
Sander for Man by Jil Sander
Cartier Roadster
So both these frags are on special at the moment and since I am on holiday for 2 months and there's no way I can go and have a spray of either of them I thought I'd ask for your opinions since this will be a blind buy. After reading the reviews it seems as if both Sander for Man by Jil Sander and Cartier Roadster are both quite minty. While I love the smell of actual mint I do not like the smell of synthetic mint, I think of mint air fresheners etc. which are very far removed from the real thing. What do you reckon is better of the two?
The nose behind Roadster has a good portfolio behind her but it doesn't compare to Monsieur Cavallier's which includes that darling of this forum: M7 as well as some of my favourites like Opium. I'm not sure if track record counts for anything. I'm tempted by Sander because it's far less widely available and therefore a bit more special in those terms.
I love the bottle of Roadster.
Roadster by Cartier ... a fresh, non-toothpasty mint, really a dark, subdued mint, which duets with a fresh, green fougere ... excellent quality and versatility ... very good sillage and longevity
Roadster all the way. It is more sophisticated. Sander for Man smelled just generic and cheap to me.
Roadster by Cartier has better longevity and more complexity to it.
It's a pity that the Sander is so thin on the ground I'd love to try it but so far it looks like Roadster is taking it easily
Neither are worth purchasing IMO.

Cartier Roadster
I have both and find Sander more versatile. There was a long period of time where I didn't wear it and when I finally got around to it, I said "oh, where have you been?". It's one of those fragrances that can feel very different from wearing to wearing - there are times that I love it and times where I find the love less so.
Roadster is nice, but I find it more of a cooler weather scent. The cashmere woods give it a bit of gravity and heaviness that I don't think wears as well in the heat/humidity. I like the mint in it, but it's definitely darker and the overall scent itself doesn't go through a huge array of change and stays fairly linear.

I've never tried Sander but I have Roadster and I'm not a fan at all. I don't exactly know what you are wanting in a mint note. If you want it as a dominant, prolonged note I don't think either will fit the bill. Roadster is minty but not a very natural smelling mint...meaning that if you're wanting the smell of mint leaves, this is not it, if you are wanting the smell of mint oil, then it will work for you. But, Roadster is not all about the mint, it is first and foremost a woody fragrance and the mint is a small player. In testing Roadster many times I have discovered that on me the mint lasts about 20 minutes or so, and then I am left with a wood plank on my wrist...don't get me wrong, I have many woody frags that I love, but the wood in Roadster is bland and boring to me.
I am a huge mint fan, and I have tried tons of mint frags and own many mint frags, and I will seek out any I can get my hands on to test. Here are my suggestions if you want mint-centric frags:
Aqua Allegoria Herba Fresca-Straight up fresh mint leaves and grass. I feel like this is THE most natural smelling mint frag.
Lush Dirty-Super minty with a clay sort of vibe to it. It's different, but very good.
CDG Green Play-This doesn't get a lot of love here on BN, but I picked it up about 3 weeks ago and at first I thought it was a little weak, but I loved the mint in it so I got it. Since then I have discovered that it has quite the longevity on my skin. It's a subtle scent, but minty throughout with an herby basil feel to it.
Frederic Malle Geranium Pour Monsieur-Great mint throughout, but it takes a backseat to the Geranium (thus the name) but the mint lasts the life of the frag and it's great.
Those are the best mint frags I have come upon. I also really like Aqua Allegoria Mentafollia but after a while I become anosmic to the mint and it becomes a strong tea scent...which I really enjoy, it's just I'm suggesting frags based on the mint. My wife can smell the mint in Mentafollia on me later on in the dry down, I just don't smell it...so, it's still about the mint, but my nose gets used to it so I don't think of it as an extreme mint frag because of that.
I hope that helped...if those are some that you might be interested in.
Roadster lasted forever on my skin. unfortunately.

I haven't sniffed Sander, but the mint opening of Roadster is absolutely insane! I never thought mint could smell so good. The dry down is another story. I like it, but the dry down kinda "meh" compared to that first hour.
I voted for Sander by a slight margin.Thanks for this. So the Sander is more versatile but which do you prefer in general?

I find Roadster to smell pretty natural myself. There are different types of mint and not everyone is looking for the literal mint leaves for smell. I agree with another poster that Roadster is better suited for cooler temperatures. I sampled my decant a few times this past winter. I would imagine it would work great in the autumn.
Sander for Man has a really nice opening, but then starts to become unremarkable and thin after an hour and a half ( or so). Its really too bad, but the perfumer created some pretty lively notes on the top. The mint is different than the Roadster. This one has more of a cooling feel, rather than Roadsters's warm feel.

Thanks for all the replies!
I've tried Herba Fresca once and I really don't recall a pronounced mint note, I did get the a grassy vibe from it though. The Lush frags have been getting a lot of good PR around here so I will check this out when I get back to CH, there aren't any stores in this city. All the CDG frags I've tried thus far have been lovely and lasted ages on me, it's a pity that they are so difficult to come by and actually try. Mentafollia sounds great, when you talk about tea, you're talking about black/Ceylon tea I suppose? In other words mint + black tea as opposed to mint tea?
Plenty of help thanks. Mint just might be my new thing, I wasn't particularly on a hunt for the most supreme minty frag it's just that these two are currently on special for very good prices and they both have a strong mint note according to reviews and that's why I'm trying to choose between them.

Mentafollia is definitely a green tea scent with mint mixed in and not mint tea-so you got it right. I don't drink tea so I don't know the difference between the scents of the different teas, so I don't know if black and green tea smell the same, but it is definitely a strong tea frag with mint as a heavy player. It really is great!! It's been discontinued, but you can always find it on ebay, that's where I got mine and it was super cheap for the 125 ml bottle. Great frag.
I forgot to mention in my previous post that CDG also has a frag called Peppermint Sherbet that is straight up mint leaves with pepper. I like this frag, it's just that the pepper becomes quite strong to me and almost overpowers the mint after a little while. They also had another frag that was in the leaves series called mint. I received a sample from an extremely nice guy on here...especially because it is discontinued and NO WHERE to be found. It is the best natural mint frag that I have experienced! It's amazing and so much like actual mint leaves. It's sad that it's been discontinued. I didn't mention it before because of that fact.
And, no, Roadster doesn't smell at all like mint leaves as was stated before. I began my hunt of mint frags after having read reviews of Heeley's Menthe Fraiche...I never knew their were mint frags out there and because of that hunt I discovered Basenotes and man have my eyes, or should I say my nose has been opened. Anyway, I didn't have access to Menthe Fraiche and I was new to the frag hobby and didn't know that you could order samples, so I researched mint fragrances and found out about Roadster. My wife and I traveled 2 hours to the nearest city and I was very excited to try it, only to be let down in a major way. I was pretty sad about it. It was not at all like I expected and the harsh mint note only lasted about 20 minutes....but you may love it and that would be awesome, especially because of the price. By the way, Menthe Fraiche was a let down too when I finally tested it...not only did it die out really quickly, but to my nose it has a very strong herba mate note in it that drowns out the mint...and it turned very sour on my skin.
I'm a huge fan of woody fragrances also, so if you have any suggestions, feel free to send them my way. I've got a few that I absolutely love and would love to add some more.
Good luck with you mint hunt.

So far I'm a big fan of CDG but they are very tricky to smell since so few places stock them, my local store has all the Bonds and most of the Creeds, a ton of not often found Guerlains but only 3 different CDG.
Obvious wood suggestions aside (Wonderwood, Eau de Baux etc.) if I recall correctly Kenzo Jungle had a wood note that I loved, I've ordered another bottle and I'll let you know when I get to it, Gucci PH I and Gucci Rush PH were also both great wood frags to my nose. It seems as if the current trend, as with the first two mentioned, is towards sweet smelling wood frags, which is a pity IMHO.
Right now I'm enjoying two woody eau de parfums that I picked up in Dubai. They are a bit of mystery and I'll have to have the bottles and boxes next to me to see if I can find any more information but the one is leathery and woody, reminds me strongly of Tom Ford's Tuscan Leather, the only label in English that I can find on the box is 'Otoori.' I've tried googling it but I can't find the bottle I have. The other is called 'Oud Ehsasi - Limited Edition' which has a strong sandalwood note to it. They are both woody and were both bought for absolute steals since neither is a known brand: they were tucked away in a small corner with zero fanfare. The Oud Ehsasi was preferred to the Amouage Interlude on my wrists.

CAPE CANAVERAL - Columbia blasted off 25 years ago today on NASA's first space shuttle mission. Seems like a good time to roll out my own personal list of shuttle program superlatives. And the winners are:
Best shuttle mission: STS-49 in May 1992. Three spacewalking astronauts grabbed an 8,960-pound satellite with gloved hands after two failed attempts to snare it with a $7 million capture bar. First flight of Challenger replacement orbiter Endeavour. First drag chute landing.
Loneliest astronaut: Pierre Thuot, on the end of Endeavour's robot arm during that same flight, watching the stranded satellite tumble away from the shuttle after tapping it too hard, for the second time in two days, with the capture bar.
Best shuttle bar: The Outpost near Johnson Space Center in Houston. A shrine to shuttle astronauts.
Most recognizable shuttle astronaut: John Glenn. Runner-up: Sally Ride.
Best shuttle crew: STS-27 in December 1988. Set to fly a classified military mission, Robert "Hoot" Gibson and his crew wore black masks to a preflight press conference. Asked by reporters about their top-secret payload, Gibson said: "We could tell you, but then we'd have to kill you."
Best answer in an astronaut candidate job interview: Bill Shepherd, first commander of the International Space Station. The U.S. Navy SEAL was asked what he does best: "Kill people with a knife."
Best crew nicknames: STS-69 in September 1995. Known as Dog Crew II, the group included the late Dave "Red Dog" Walker, Ken "Cujo" Cockrell, Jim "Dog Face" Voss, Jim "Pluto" Newman and Michael "Underdog" Gernhardt. The crew wore an alternate mission patch that featured a bulldog peering out of a doghouse shaped like a shuttle. They ate their preflight breakfast from dog bowls. Runner-up: Jean-Francois "Billy-Bob" Clervoy.
Best crew walkout: STS-44 Terminal Countdown Demonstration Test. For a launch-day dress rehearsal one day after Halloween in 1991, commander Fred Gregory and his crew wore hairless skullcaps as they departed quarters. It was a tribute to bald crewmate Story Musgrave.
Strangest shuttle astronaut: Story Musgrave. Runner-up: Rick Sturckow.
Smartest-and-bravest shuttle astronaut: Mir crash survivor Michael Foale.
Sickest astronaut: "Barfin' " Jake Garn. The U.S. senator from Utah suffered a notorious bout with space adaptation syndrome on his 1985 flight. Runner-up: J.O. Creighton, who fell ill before STS-36, delaying the February 1990 launch.
Luckiest astronaut: Dan Bursch, the only astronaut to survive two perilous shuttle launch pad aborts (on STS-51 in 1993 and STS-68 in 1994).
Tallest astronaut: 6-foot-4 Jim Wetherbee.
Shortest astronaut: 5-foot Nancy Currie.
Biggest shuttle flier: Russian cosmonaut Valery Ryumin.
Best "astro-couple": Robert "Hoot" Gibson and Rhea Seddon. Runners-up: Mark Lee and Jan Davis, who became the first married couple to fly together in space on STS-47 in 1992.
Coolest spacewalk: STS-41B in 1984. Bruce McCandless and Robert Stewart tested Buck Rogers jet backpacks known as manned maneuvering units.
Greatest spacewalking
achievement: STS-61
in December 1993. An unprecedented five consecutive days of spacewalks were
performed to repair the
myopic Hubble Space Telescope and outfit the observatory with new science instruments and equipment.
Scariest launch pad abort: STS-41D in 1984. A fuel valve triggered an engine shutdown four seconds before a planned launch, leading to a propellant leak and a fire with six astronauts aboard.
Scariest launch since the 1986 Challenger disaster: STS-93 in 1999. An electrical short crashed two engine computers five seconds after launch, leaving the crew one failure away from a risky emergency landing attempt. Runner-up: STS-114 in 2005. In a haunting reminder of the 2003 Columbia accident, a one-pound piece of external tank foam insulation broke free two minutes after launch, barely missing the shuttle's right wing as the ship climbed toward orbit.
Best bullet-dodger: Astronaut Mike Mullane. The first case of solid rocket booster O-ring "blow-by" (which later doomed Challenger) was recorded on his first flight, STS-41D in 1984. The most serious shuttle heat shield damage prior to the Columbia accident was tallied on his second, STS-27 in 1988.
The dreaded do-over award: STS-73 in 1995. The flight was scrubbed six times before blasting off. Three earlier missions (STS-61C, STS-35 and STS-36) each were delayed five times.
Most likely to be sent back to crew quarters: Astronaut Steve Hawley. He endured 11 launch scrubs prior to his five space flights.
Best all-astronaut rock 'n' roll band: Max Q.
Worst all-astronaut rock 'n' roll band: Max Q.
Best Elvis impersonator: Max Q lead singer Carl Walz.
Best sticks: Max Q drummer Jim Wetherbee.
Best stick: STS-49 Mission Commander Dan Brandenstein. On the 1992 flight, Brandenstein squeezed enough gas out of Endeavour's tanks to pull off a third rendezvous with a wayward spacecraft after his crew failed to snare it during two initial attempts. Mission planners had only budgeted enough propellant for two tries.
Best beer fund: STS-49. Brandenstein's crew was fined during training for each uttered curse word. As things got hairy during the mission, he reminded his crew over open communications loops: "The Eagle Is Listening."
Best crew patch: STS-71 in 1995. Famed aviation and space artist Robert McCall designed the patch, which depicted Atlantis and the Russian space station Mir converging before a rising sun. The sun symbolized the dawn of a new era in space flight.
Best post-landing picture: STS-43 in 1991. A supermarket tabloid published a doctored photo showing an alien exiting the shuttle with the astronaut crew.
Most mysterious shuttle manager: George Abbey, former director of Flight Crew Operations. His process for selecting astronaut crews: black magic.
Best shuttle-era Kennedy Space Center director: Forrest McCartney, who led KSC through the tumultuous post-Challenger recovery. McCartney was loved and respected on the fourth floor of KSC headquarters and the shop floor. Runner-up: Jay Honeycutt. A great manager and a really nice guy, he also understood the media's role in "telling the NASA story."
Best shuttle launch director: Bob "Part-the-Clouds" Sieck. A former Air Force meteorologist, Sieck's expertise in weather systems and forecasting came in handy. Unflappable, the iceman also was the very picture of grace under pressure.
Most accomplished KSC manager: John J. "Tip" Talone Jr. Talone was flow director for Discovery during the post-Challenger recovery and oversaw the manufacture and delivery of replacement orbiter Endeavour. Talone directed ground testing and processing for International Space Station components before taking on his most recent challenge: heading the effort to convert KSC back into a moonport.
Most likely to be an astronaut: Stephanie Stilson, who oversaw ground processing of Discovery for last year's first post-Columbia flight.
Best International Space Station construction crew: The STS-98 astronauts, who delivered the U.S. Destiny science lab to the ISS in February 2001.
Best 2-for-1 deal: STS-83 in 1997. One mission. Two launches. Two landings. Led by Jim Halsell, the crew cut short a science mission because of a failed fuel cell. NASA launched the crew again in less than three months so their mission (reconstituted as STS-94) could be completed.
Best space taxi driver: STS-71 Commander Robert "Hoot" Gibson. He ferried two Russian cosmonauts to the Mir station and returned to Earth with U.S. astronaut Norman Thagard and two other cosmonauts in 1995.
Best shuttle homeboy: "Booster" Bill Nelson. A native of Brevard County, Nelson's grandparents homesteaded on land where NASA eventually built the Shuttle Landing Facility. The politician-in-space flew aboard Columbia the mission before the Challenger accident.
Best shuttle homegirl: Kay Hire, the first KSC engineer to be selected as an astronaut. She flew on STS-90, a neuroscience mission, in April 1998.
Best liftoff line: Launch Commentator Lisa Malone on STS-95 with John Glenn onboard in 1998. "Booster ignition and lift-off of Discovery with a crew of six astronaut heroes and one American legend."
Best diving catch by a launch commentator: Bruce Buckingham on the initial STS-68 launch attempt in 1994. "Three, two, one, liiiiiiiiiif-Rendundant Set Launch Sequencer abort."
Most star-crossed mission: STS-35 in December 1990. Repeatedly delayed during a six-month period by diabolical fuel leaks. Shuttle toilet broke in orbit.
Weirdest science experiment: STS-58 in 1993, the headless rat mission. A guillotine-like "rodent dispatcher" was used to "fix" rats in orbit as part of a life sciences study.
Worst summer: 1990, also known as the "summer of discontent." Within a period of about 72 hours, NASA announced the Hubble Space Telescope was launched with a misshapen mirror and also grounded its shuttle fleet because of mysterious fuel leaks.
Weirdest launch delay: STS-70 in 1995. Set to launch on the historic 100th U.S. human space flight, the mission was delayed after Yellow Shafted Flicker Woodpeckers drilled dozens of holes in external tank foam insulation. The shuttle was returned to its assembly building for repairs. The mission ultimately became the 101st U.S. human space flight.
Best prelaunch astronaut prayer: "Please, God, don't let me screw up."
