+ | [[Megan]] and [[Ponytail]] are organizers of a Space Mission hearing. Megan, despite her grown-up and professional introduction for the hearing, failed to conceal her childish and enthusiastic nature, exclaiming "space" and "pew pew pew" (A typical sound that spaceship toys make). The joke is that most of the support for spending billions of dollars and other resources on interplanetary exploration is not really for all of the reasons listed, but simply because we believe space to be cool. Ironically, due to the vacuum in space, you would actually not hear shooting sounds unless you are in a ship with an atmosphere. | ||
− | + | The enthusiastic exclamation "Spaaaaaace" is likely a reference to the Space Core in the video game Portal 2, which was also very enthusiastic about space travel. Portal has been previously featured in [[606: Cutting Edge]]. | |
