What if Bill Gates Ran NASA
- "We come in peace" replaced by "We come to make money."
- New slogan: "Resistance is futile. You will be assimilated." (Oh, I'm sorry, that's the Borg slogan.)
- The first 2 or 3 Revisions of all equipment (rocket, space suit, etc.) kills its operators.
- Apollo 13: "Houston, we have a problem." Mission Control: "Please hold for Tech Support, and have your credit card number ready."
- Hubble Space Telescope flaw described as "a feature, not a bug"; astronomers told to squint.
- U.S. actually second to land men on the moon; had to wait for somebody else to do it first so we could copy them.
- General public still believes NASA was first thanks to superior marketing.
- Mars Pathfinder misses planet due to Pentium FDIV bug.
- Instead of actually building the International Space Station, NASA just buys the Russian space program and renames Mir.
- After buying the Mir space station and upgrading its systems with NASAsoft Windows 95, the on-board computer crashes twice as often.
