    What a photo!! It reminds me of an experiment involving two American bullfrogs that NASA used to study weightlessness. It was called the Orbiting Frog Otolith (OFO).
    ACF people, you'll love this video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YmNtrGfRq2M

    I fail at the Internet because just seeing that made me sad. I felt so bad for the frog. I doubt he had a painless death

    Xenopus (ACFs) have been going up into space for nearly 40 years. The ACF in the video was not hurt. Obviously, the frog in the moon probe shot did not make it
