There's some hints about the kind of experiment payloads have flown: not all classified, not all military, some mundane long duration materials and radiation exposure studies it sounds like.

- jjoonathan 3y agoRight, and the classified ones are probably more like "what does space radiation do to uranium/plutonium/LiD/etc" and less like "if we take the Mexico Mummified Alien Bodies into the Van Allen belts, do they come to life?" EDIT: I'd still watch the movie though.
- actionfromafar 3y agoWould definitely watch that movie.

- dylan604 3y agoHaha! We were just talking about remakes of movies rarely working out so well as far as making the story any better. I guess they make out well in enough in regards to the producers making money. https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=38234220 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=38234220
