I know that The Onion is among the Stuff White People Like to talk about, but the editors of the satirical newspaper have done it again: Here's a link to the latest story about Science & Technology, which details a David Bowie-themed N.A.S.A. mission called Starman. This isn't as hilarious as the "Pitchfork gives music a 6.8" story, but the last paragraph gave me a solid belly laugh. The mission will surely be genre-defying.
