The Geostationary Banana

There’s an art project to put a geostationary banana in orbit over Texas. I suppose it makes about as much sense as some of the other things that hail from that State. It seems appropriate that it’s a banana, as well.

    I’m compelled to comment here.  There’s no defense for this, but I had to weigh in nonetheless.
     
    I was initially disappointed that this wasn’t a REAL banana, but a framed mockup.  Then I saw the pictures of the scale, and it made more sense.
     
    We do have our share of idling rocket scientists around NASA, don’t we….

    Hi, Mike – all the best to you and yours for 2007. Hope that you’ll be able to see Heston Blumenthal’s TV series. It will make more sense than the banana…
