Malaysia Has a Space Program!?
Topic: Weird Shit

When next year's Malaysian astronaut attempts not to explode in outer space in a Russian-made rocket, he will also attempt something even more dangerous: making boiling hot tea inside the multi-million dollar tube full of wiring and things that explode.

"The physics experiment is to see what happens to teh tarik in space," Haniff Omar, head of Malaysia's astronaut selection program, said. 

What is interesting is that not only will this be the first time that a Malaysian is in space, but that they'd think it would be fun and neat and all that to make a pot of boiling hot tea that has been known to burn people on Earth... where there is gravity... because it's extremely difficult to make... on the ground.  Malaysians are stupid, yo.
