That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?

But, but, but.... Pluto's my favorite planet. Now it will be my, what? Favorite oversized snowball?

That is so wrong, that I don't even care whether it's right. It's one of the things I'll be muttering about when I get old(er) and cranky(er).

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Heh. I mean, sorry. I mean, it's not my fault Pluto's so small....

The physicists in my labs don't have military training, but they can build a railgun. Of course, the cavemen will have slaughtered them before they gathered the necessary materials for this.
"Oh dear, Nils. What the hell is that?"
"It appears, Albert, to be a caveman with a pointed stick, coming to kill us."
"Oh dear! Whatever shall we do?"
"Well, we could build a railgun. First, we'll need to lay out a very straight, non-ferrous track. Then we'll need to collect up a large number of magnets, to be fired in sequence in order to propel the..."

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
These days, not all astronauts are military/ex-military.
No, but that was one of the assumptions Allyson, question-asker, made. So I'm going with it. She even went IDF.
Are all astronauts scientists? Even so, my mother's a scientist, and while I'd root for her versus a caveman, it'd not be science that won that fight. It would be that even though she doesn't know why I do krav, it's her I get those urges from.
