Now I just need a Cape!

Or maybe I don't.. perhaps I could ride around in this cool bike anytime I want, and not just when I am out stopping crime.

NASA to Bomb Monkeys with Gamma Radiation!

AHHH!

I can't believe what I am reading - NASA is going to subject monkeys to radiation! This is unbelievable. NASA plans on doing this to a group of monkeys because they want to study what might happen to humans on long-term space missions - such as trips to Mars.

In the 1950's the space program asked some brave monkeys (and other non-human primates) to participate in the space program because the humans were just to scared.

But now they want to aim high-energy gamma-ray radiation at monkeys. I will not support this unless these monkeys are complete volunteers. Because potentially harming these monkeys (especially against their will) is not right!

*Another potential (even if the monkeys volunteer) - is that we should monitor them because this sounds like the same type of experiments that turned Bruce Banner into the Incredible Hulk!

Could you imagine and Incredible Hulk like Monkey!?! It would be unstoppable (perhaps I should volunteer.. hmmm)
