Astronaut's Head Upgraded During Spacewalk
As part of a planned upgrade for the International Space Station, an Expedition 18 astronaut seemingly received a head upgrade. This satirical image suggests a 'Human Extended Analog Device 9000' was attached. This humorous take on space station upgrades implies increased efficiency for spacewalks and enhanced cognitive functions for astronauts.
