🎥 The “Spacewalk” Gone Wrong
During a live broadcast of a NASA spacewalk, eagle-eyed viewers noticed something strange: a fish casually swimming past the astronaut.
At first, NASA dismissed it as “space debris.” But replay footage clearly shows fins and a tail swishing gracefully across the screen.
“It was a tuna, or maybe a trout,” joked one viewer.
“Either way, I’m pretty sure there aren’t fish in space.”
🏊♂️ Filming in the Pool… Again
This isn’t the first time NASA has been accused of using the Neutral Buoyancy Lab — a giant swimming pool in Houston — to fake spacewalks.
Past slip-ups include:
-
Air bubbles rising past astronauts in “space.”
-
Divers reflected in astronaut helmets.
-
Now, the ultimate fail: a CGI fish that wasn’t deleted from the footage.
😂 Internet Reaction
Flat Earth forums erupted with laughter:
-
“NASA = National Aquatic Swimming Agency.”
-
“Forget the Milky Way — they’re in the Chlorine Galaxy.”
-
Memes showed astronauts carrying snorkels and rubber duckies.
One viral post joked: “Next time, at least edit out the sharks.”
🚨 NASA’s Response
NASA quickly deleted the video and replaced it with CGI footage of astronauts floating against a starry background. But the damage was done — the fish clip had already gone viral.
A NASA spokesperson later said:
“The fish was… uh… space plankton.”
🧠 Final Thought
If astronauts are swimming with fish during “spacewalks,” then the only thing floating in orbit is NASA’s credibility.
