    Check out the correction at the bottom of this New York Times article on the space station:

    Correction: February 7, 2018
    An earlier version of this article misidentified a company planning to send cargo to the International Space Station. It is an aerospace company called Sierra Nevada, not a craft beer company, also called Sierra Nevada.

    (Credit to Tim Fernholz who pointed this out on Twitter.)

    If Sierra Nevada did brew a beer for the astronauts, I bet it would be super low-gravity.

    I sense a lawsuit in the works due to the likelihood of consumer confusion in the marketplace. :wink:

    And Galaxy dry-hopped.
    I can't wait for the disclaimer to start showing up on SN products: "Not brewed for off-world consumption."

    Space Cadet seems like the most appropriate name, given the circumstances.

    I’ve always been partial to “Buzz” Aldrin!

    I can't wait for the "celebration" flight. Last years was better anyway. :wink:
