Hey kids, that’s great that you want to be an astronaut–just make sure that if and when that happens that you go easy on the blow, okay? Have you ever tried to do the stuff in zero gravity? Not as cool as it sounds. Honestly, the whole thing is just a huge mess.
Authorities this week announced that they’ve discovered 4.2 grams of cocaine on-site at the Kennedy Space Center in Florida. Initial tests revealed the substance to be coke, though further tests are being performed, courtesy of NASA’s Office of Inspector General.
Oddly, this marks the second time that cocaine has been discovered at the Kennedy Space Center. Last January, the stuff was found in Discovery’s hangar.
NASA subjects employees to random drug searches–and there will do doubt be a few in the immediate future for Kennedy employees. “We’re subject to federal government guidelines, and there are a fair number of positions that have that prerequisite ahead of time and also require it randomly,” said NASA spokesman Allard Beutel.
