Maybe by now you’ve heard about the astronaut, Lisa Nowak, who was arrested on kidnapping and attempted murder charges over an astronaut love triangle. Ok, I’m making up the triangle part, but Ms. Nowak’s fate is destined to be decided by the courts. Now you might be wondering what this has to do with duct tape and the answer is the NASA rulebook for handling astronauts gone insane in space.

Seriously.

It turns out NASA has detailed, written procedures for dealing with a suicidal or psychotic astronaut in space. The documents, obtained this week by The Associated Press, say the astronaut’s crewmates should bind his wrists and ankles with duct tape, tie him down with a bungee cord and inject him with tranquilizers if necessary.

Duct tape scores yet another useful application. I’m sure the duct tape guys will be psyched. Not psychotic, hopefully, but if they are then all their captor’s have to do is go NASA style and use duct tape.
