- chlyon, on 11/22/2008, -0/+4In other news today the international space agency has no explanation for why cosmonaut Olga Grericty and Slav noanameavic opened the air locks to the international space station . Unconfirmed sources say the cosmonauts bodies where found naked.

Now, happy tripping! - erkokite, on 11/22/2008, -0/+2Yes- I can only imagine what projectile vomit is like without gravity.
- Mpwns, on 11/21/2008, -1/+9sign me up.
- Traductus, on 11/21/2008, -2/+10dead space!!
- RonPaulTOLDu, on 11/21/2008, -3/+38Somebody told me magic mushrooms come from space. After a few experiences with psilocybin, I must say I agree.
- zerton, on 11/22/2008, -7/+4space aka cow *****
- TheOneTrueGod, on 11/22/2008, -0/+6No, it works like this:
There is a feedback-loop in your head. Stuff that comes from the outside (ears, eyes etc.) is fed into the loop, and the loop itself gets filtered to reduce redundancies/similarities.
If you use psilocybin/psilocin, the feedback-filter opens and stuff that usually get filtered out stays in the loop, becomes amplified *in your head* (not in reality) by perceiving it. That's why colors begin to glow more intensely.
You might have the impression that this happens in reality, but that is only your share of the reality of the Universe. Once you have come down (and spent a few months, I guess) you will have landed in the midst of the other spirits and that which you thought was in outer reality will have revealed itself to have been just in your perspective of the objective reality that we live in.
Because the whole Universe is one thing, shutting down the filters of perception (which is both a good as well as a dangerous thing to do) opens your mental perception to the oneness that the world is. No need for the mushroom to come from outer space.- RonPaulTOLDu, on 11/22/2008, -0/+1meh i wouldnt be surprised if all life came from space... were basically in it. yeah its all one so it is reality cuz its experience and experience is part of that oneness, yadadaimean?
- replaysMike, on 11/22/2008, -2/+16Cook em up and tell us how they TASTE
- jggube, on 11/22/2008, -0/+24I would freak the f**k out.

- mishaneah, on 11/22/2008, -0/+20Get me out of here! BAD TRIP! BAD TRIP!
- ApolloXLII, on 11/22/2008, -2/+2i wanna drop acid with the beatles, too.
- TheOneTrueGod, on 11/22/2008, -0/+1Close your eyes. The negative perception might not go away, but at least the constant fueling from the outside world will subside and allow you to balance the self-perception-circle of your consciousness (which is running wild when you lost balance on a trip). Have someone you totally trust nearby.
- Someb0dy, on 11/22/2008, -3/+4I want to see these mushies!
It'll be quite astounding if they contain psilocybin. - SSPink, on 11/22/2008, -0/+50According to Aleksandr Sprin with the Russian mission control:
"If there’s not enough ventilation in the bathroom then, because it’s damp, the bacteria grows into a fungus."
No it doesn't. And just in case he was wondering, if left alone the fungus will not grow into a mammal.- seibed, on 11/22/2008, -3/+9is that him talking, or it his translator?
Do you know the word for 'spore' in Russian? I thought not.- rushiku, on 11/22/2008, -0/+13spore = спора != bacteria =
бактерии
and your point is?
- rushiku, on 11/22/2008, -0/+13spore = спора != bacteria =
- Metasquares, on 11/22/2008, -0/+2Well, maybe over billions of years...
- brundlefly76, on 11/22/2008, -0/+1sounds like we need to send up an emergency shuttle with a fresh bottle of Tilex.
- seibed, on 11/22/2008, -3/+9is that him talking, or it his translator?

- BenBenMan, on 11/22/2008, -0/+6They'd had it with those *****' snakes, in this *****' space station
- JoeSpaceTime, on 11/22/2008, -0/+3Snakes On A Rocket.
- isayre020888, on 11/22/2008, -1/+13AH! A SNAKE! IT'S A SNAAAAKE!
- teotbote, on 11/22/2008, -0/+22I told you guys not to launch Timothy Leary's ashes into space. Now look what's happened!
- ApolloXLII, on 11/22/2008, -7/+11and for the following 7 hours, all the following transmissions went as follows:
"dude... we're floating. it's like we're in space!"
"dude, man. we ARE in space!"
"woah. hey man, check out the Earth! it's so small! it's like i can reach out and touch it!"
"haha... yyeeeaahhh."
and they all went in a chorus of "we've got the whole world in our hands" for the next hour.- DeathJux, on 11/22/2008, -0/+13Remind me to never do mushrooms with you.
- olafcore, on 11/22/2008, -1/+1I wish I could digg you up a thousand times for the Rocketman reference.
- doublefelix, on 11/22/2008, -2/+9Have they found that spider that escaped from the experiment yet? Maybe he's behind this.
- emyo, on 11/22/2008, -2/+6pics or it didnt happen
but seriously i really want to know what they look like!!!- SlechtValk, on 11/27/2008, -0/+1That was the first and second thing i thought, how do mushrooms grow in zero gravity?
- Chjoma10, on 11/22/2008, -3/+2Dugg for "Mushrooms in space" "....Dank"
- zerton, on 11/22/2008, -0/+1shrooming in space would give me a too intense trip!
- flipdoubt, on 11/22/2008, -0/+1How about just BEING in space... that would be an intense enough experience alone!
- virtualonliner, on 11/22/2008, -0/+15First a missing spider, now mushrooms out of nowhere! Only logical conclusion seems to be spider transformed into mushroom.
http://www.abcactionnews.com/news/local/story.aspx ...- CarStan, on 11/22/2008, -5/+2Spidershroom, Spidershroom, does whatever a mushroom can..
- DeathJux, on 11/22/2008, -1/+9I, for one, welcome our new spider-mushroom overlords.
- isayre020888, on 11/22/2008, -0/+19Reminds me of Cowboy Bebop.
- titaniumten, on 11/22/2008, -0/+3Me too.
- Dr3w, on 11/22/2008, -0/+7Mushroom Samba, one of my favorite episodes.
- palehorse864, on 11/22/2008, -0/+3*Hic* *Hic* *Woah!*
- idc5, on 11/22/2008, -0/+1title should be Dank mushrooms in space
- DarkLance, on 11/22/2008, -0/+1This is how it always starts...
Start stocking your food and water folks - suo97119, on 11/22/2008, -0/+3News Flash: No gravity in space debunked as "astronauts grilling on mushrooms."
- tallguyg, on 11/22/2008, -1/+17Did anyone else read the title like, "Mushrooooms in SPPPPAAAAAAAAAAAAACE!"
- dispatched, on 11/22/2008, -1/+7I for one welcome our new Fungi overlords.
- CriagVenter, on 11/22/2008, -2/+0So guys!!!!!! its like a Mushroooom Revolution......the conclusion of whole(hole) story is---u can grow mushrooooom in toilet also hannnn.......
- ragez, on 11/22/2008, -0/+6awesome. life breeds wherever it can.
- Lorddias, on 11/22/2008, -0/+17No pix of the shrooms? I'm disappointed.
- MrRedneck, on 11/22/2008, -0/+6Boldly going where no mushroom has gone before? This is pretty cool..
- clintard, on 11/22/2008, -0/+2stamets always talked about spreading spores everywhere he went, wonder if hes been to nasa?
- benroy, on 11/22/2008, -0/+6Why would anyone remove or destroy the mushrooms? Isn't the point and purpose of an orbital space station to examine how chemicals, plants, animals, etc. behave in a near-zero environment? Why destroy the 'shrooms? Seems to me that they should be studied and documented and subjected to the same degree of rigorous experimentation as any other 'experiment' that would take place in such an environment.
Or just slice 'em up, sautee` them and put them on a nice porterhouse steak*.
*dehydrated steak of course. like the ones the serve at outback steakhouse.- gotacalc, on 11/22/2008, -0/+2I think that it has more to do with that the space station is a closed space that would be more affected by spores than open settings on Earth would.
- alappat1, on 11/22/2008, -0/+1so your gonna take fungus that came from a used towel ( a towel probably used to wipe someone's balls) and put it on steak? what are you gonna call it? the crotch-rot porterhouse?
- hijstr, on 11/22/2008, -0/+3thats pretty freaky bowie
- dn11, on 11/22/2008, -0/+3the ISS sounds ***** disgusting. not toilets, random fugal growth. I bet it smells horrible in there.
- crkatana, on 11/22/2008, -0/+7there's a fungus amoung us
- Stonekeeper, on 11/22/2008, -0/+7that astronaut sounds like a fun guy
- Maddoktor2, on 11/22/2008, -0/+1We see what you did there...
- liuite, on 11/22/2008, -1/+1Space Spores will enter your nasal passages and cause hallucinations
- TwwIX, on 11/22/2008, -0/+3Sounds like a title for a 50's b-movie.
- OutlawSundown, on 11/22/2008, -0/+3 Magic space mushrooms... if you think your in orbit now wait until you try these.
- DarrylWatts, on 11/22/2008, -0/+2Are they mushrooms that grew from spores that were carried aboard from earth? Or are they some sort of space spore that were carried aboard from a recent space-walk? What type of fungus is it? And can spores stay dormant in a non-oxygen environment?
- mdmanic, on 11/22/2008, -0/+0I think if they were a species from outer space that would make slightly more headlines than this story has.
- TurnipFarm, on 11/22/2008, -1/+3OM NOM NOM NOM
- flipdoubt, on 11/22/2008, -0/+8Terence McKenna speculated that mushrooms were perhaps "alien" life forms themselves, observing that spores may be well suited for space travel. I've always thought fungus to be somewhat other-worldly... from the way mycelium propagates, to the strange fruits (i.e. mushrooms) it produces, and of course, that's not to mention the boundary dissolving effects of the many psychoactive strains. Weird, curious little life-forms if you ask me.
- Zaxcomp, on 11/22/2008, -0/+2deoxy.org
- UnarmedHippo, on 11/22/2008, -0/+4i totally thought this article was going to be about tripping balls in space. holy ***** imagine staring at the earth on mushrooms
- TheOneTrueGod, on 11/22/2008, -0/+2Especially because you never know if the clouds are moving or the pattern-thingy in your head is already melting.
- arid, on 11/22/2008, -0/+4"...the bacteria grows into a fungus." This doesn't make sense.
- wunksta, on 11/22/2008, -0/+1probably a mistranslation or maybe they arent that knowledgeable in biology?
- kd1s, on 11/22/2008, -0/+1Bacteria and fungi are everywhere just waiting for the opportunity to grow.
- LawnMowerKitten, on 11/22/2008, -0/+3Malcolm was right:
"Life.... finds a way."- wunksta, on 11/22/2008, -0/+1hah was about to post that XD
- whoreable, on 11/22/2008, -0/+1Thats like far out squared.
- TheFedson, on 11/22/2008, -0/+0space drugs!!!
- sparkmonkeyz, on 11/22/2008, -2/+1This is ***** weird, cause no joke, I just had the most intense shroom trip last night. I feel ***** friied right now, if ya know what I mean.
