Space suit

Hi kids!

Here's a picture of me at the space center display of space suits.
Spacemen have to wear space suits because there's no air in outer
space. The suit provides the astronaut with air to breath and
protection from the heat, cold and vacuum of space. The suits cost
whoa-a-lotta bucks and are custom made for each astronaut.

If I was an astronaut and they made me go up after Labor Day, I would
have to get my suit in like a taupe at least. No one wears white after
Labor Day, geesh.

The helmits have cool mirrored visors so the astronaut can see you but
you can't see him. That's so the astonauts can make faces at people
without getting caught. They said it takes two hours for an astonauts
to get into the suit. Typical government workers you say? No it's
just that there are a lot of parts and everything has to be checked.

The next three parts of the space station to go up are called Raphael,
Donatello and Leonardo. They were built by the Italian Space Agency. I
have no idea if these people know that these are all also the names of
Mutant Ninja Turtles. It could be NASA is messing with their minds.

You be good kids, now, and hold still and let the teacher mess with
your minds!
