NASA/Etsy Space Craft Contest winners and finalists

Northstar table - I liked the table anyway, then this!!! Man that really is far out.

but this is SO far from the mission of science, research, and exploration that it's no wonder that many people think NASA is a colossal waste of money!

When congress cuts NASA's funding, just look back at things like this.

I was expecting to see artist's concepts of possible new spacecraft. Instead, there are seashells, tiddly winks and tables - as the grand prize winner!

Unbelievable.

Even though it has that cool drawer, I wouldn't give it a grand prize. It's a table with little dot's on it.

LOL. Yeah dude. A table, really. The dots on my table sure don't open a cool drawer! I think they're paint splatters and old price tags from various crap I've bought. I could try pressing them all just in case I missed something. Might amuse me for a bit, but I'm easily amused, Thank the heavens ... which brings brings us round full circle.

popped out of the dots - then maybe I'd be impressed!

Look at the table, then think, if there were 4 full-size drawers in there, opening to different stars... that'd impress me.
Think about it...
