Astronauts Recreate Hitchhiker's Guide To The Galaxy Poster

But, for ISS Expedition 42 — the answer to life, the universe and everything — there could only be one choice.

a gift of bounteous love. The universe around us emerged from thy nose. Now we await with eager expectation, thy handkerchief, to bring us back to thee.

Let us pray. Oh mighty one, we raise our noses to you blocked and unblown, send the handkerchief O blessed one that we may be wiped clean.

(everyone sneezes simultaneously)

Bless you.
