“It’s always fun to go for a spin”…
See if the milkyway is made of milkbones
“dang it – that’s the direction of the sun… !”
Rover:“Hmm I don’t remember them predicting it would be quite so windy today.”
" I don’t think Buzz Light-year started this way. "
“Funny, I thought we were doing low-gravity training TOMORROW.”
This is conclusive proof that four legs are better than two!
“He didn’t even say goodbye.”
Wait – you forgot to give me my space treat
Beware of the NASA centrifuge!
He got ahead into orbit
Boingggg !
“Good thing he’s wearing his helmet!”
“And we have liftoff!”
“One small spin for a dog, a giant fling for a human kid.”
What goes up, must come down.
Spinning wheel’s got to go round….
Wait! I didn’t say “blastoff!”
“Ground control to Major Red, you’ve really made the grade.” (copyright issues?)
“So, have your forehead wrinkles flattened out?”
One small steeeeep…
Step one: Spin factor!!!
“Didn’t he learn anything from Star Trek? I told him not to wear his red shirt!”
“We have liftoff”
Houston! We have lift off!
Well, at least he flew further this time.
Who knew we were astronauts in training all those years ago.
Space walking like a CHAMP!
Next stop, Mars!
“Bring me back some Milky Bones!!!!”
Hope he comes back with some Milky Bone.
“We have liftoff!”
Much better lift off than he got from the swings
Who will give me milky bones now?
“Happy landings Red!”
Red Frisbee launch! I’m off to catch him in 3, 2, and 1!
and we have lift off! there he goes!
Now THAT’S a giant leap!
Send a photo of my favorite planet, Pluto.
I don’t think wearing the red shirt whilst playing ‘Star Trek’ was such a good idea.
And we have lift off
“Red! Wait for me!”
Sure it wasn’t Future Astronaut Relaunch Training??
Now’s not the time for a spacewalk
I thought we were going together?
“Houston, we have a problem!”
I’ll be back when they have their captions filled…
Maybe we should have gone with the football helmets.
The take off seemed pretty easy but sticking the landing may be a bit tougher.
Houston we have a problem!
Should have named it Future Astronaut Spin Training or F.A.S.T.
So that’s how craters are made!
Houston, we have take off!
Prepare for splat down!
“I ate too many milky bones, gravity is holding me down!”
“Let me know how your spacewalk goes.”
Congratulations! You’ve achieved escape velocity!
“I told him to sit in the middle.”
Wait! Aren’t you taking me?
You said you were getting dizzy!!!
You’re doing a spacewalk without me?!?!
hope he lands on something soft… :{
Launch was successful!
Houston, we have orbital insertion!
I train every time I circle to sleep
You’re going for a spacewalk without me?!?!
“Love you, Red, to the moon & back.”
That’s one small spin for man.
Houston, we have a problem!
“I Love You but I can’t walk in space”
I sure hope he’s making a round trip – my dinner time is getting close.
“Hmm … I wonder if that happened to Neil Armstrong.”
“signal if there are dog biscuits on the next planet!
“Now this time try to stick the landing!”
Rover: “Houston … we’ve had a problem here …”
You need to hang on, Red.
“To the Moon Red!”
Careful, the landing is ruff!
Red! Help me get off this stupid thing!
Going where no boy has gone before.
De-orbit! De-orbit!
I don’t think ‘to infinity and beyond’ quite applies here!
“Still a more successful launch than SpaceX’s last rocket.”
Now we need Future Astronaut Retrieval Training!
“Houston…we’ve achieved low earth orbit!”
An “A” for today’s lesson on escape velocity.
one giant leap for man…
Don’t forget to turn on the “Future Astronauts Radio Transmitter.” ;>)
To infinity and beyond!
“And we have a launch!”
Come back! You forgot the tether!
“Houston, we have a problem.”
enough of this nonsense.
Godspeed, Captain Red.
Houston, we have liftoff!
MAYDAY!! MAYDAY!!
Houston……be advised that Cadet Red has achieved departure escape velocity. TO THE MOON!!!!
That doesn’t sound much like a rocket; it should be more of a “Vroooom!”
Red, we didn’t schedule a spacewalk at dinner time!
Now that is a perfect launch.
“Watch out for your spleen!”
“Ground Control to Major Red!”
FATP is also the noise he makes when he lands.
NASA – Need Another Single Astronaut
“I’ll catch you on your next orbit.”
He thought he heard Popsicle Pete! I’d do the same for the treats in his pocket!
I hope he gets back soon, it’s almost time for dinner
“We should have tested this on the Disneyland Tea Cup ride. Red would have been strapped in!” Safety first!"
“Please, please come back!”
Aaaand, we have lift-off ….
Sub Orbital Flight Achieved.
I hope this stops spinning before I barf…
That’s one giant flying leap for boykind…!
He’s finally a astronaut
I hope Red finds a place to splash down.
" And we have lift off! A successful launch!"
See ya, certainly wouldn’t want to be ya…
Wait… I still have the leash for your spacewalk!!!
Rover tried to tell Red he needed a tether line…
not a big fan of this format but anything with Red and Rover brings a smile to my face
Don’t forget to beam me up!
No word bubble comment for me today, just I would have called it theFuture Astronaut RingTraining
I mean if we’re going to point out the acronym let’s make it count!
Follow me Rover. Rover? Hello?
Hope he gets back in time for my dinner.
WE HAVE LIFTOFF!
That’s one step for man, one giant leap off the Merry Go Round for kid.
“Good launch Red, right behind ya”.
Houston, we have liftoff!!
Aaand we have lift off!
Red, if my calculation is correct…vesc=2gm divided by r
Rocket Man (With some musical notes drawn in)
Saweet! Countdowns really work!
I wonder how far he will go this time.
Rendevous at lunchtime
Aaaaah. Centrifugal Force for the win.
“Obviously a major malfunction”
“Use your tail to steer…oh wait.”
That’s one small step for Red and one giant leap for Rover. Wait for me!!
Get back here!! I haven’t finished the countdown!!!
Launch Control to Rover Status Please OVER
The much less talked about NASA pilot program…
“One small step for man. . . one giant leap for RED!”
You were right! You DID hurl!
On target for spalshdown, but the pool is empty.
He’s got the right stuff
Houston we have a problem
Who needs a rocket to get us into orbit?
I told you Red, it’d be easier if you’d just chase your tail like I do.
Wait!! You forgot my snack!
ESCAPE VELOCITY ACHIEVED!
Having survived the merry go round, I love this. The further you get to the edge, the more the force gets you.
We have lift off!
“I can’t see.. too blurry, did you make it?”
“Me next!”
“Uh oh! He forgot to fill the ‘landing pad’ with air again!”
“Say hi to the man-in-the-moon and bring me back some gorgonzola!”
Up, up, and away!
Torpedo away!!!!!
Rover to Command Center…….we have lift off!
Great launch there ….. Red …….. but your landing might “NEED” some improvement …….. OK ……. Rover …….. Your next ….. ;)
I should’of peed before we left earth
Scotty, beam me back!
Houston – we have a problem!
Up, Up, and Away!
This carousel comes with a “chicken switch” ?
No Go from NASA Amon that one.
“Hey, wait, you forgot your best friend!”
“Let me know if you reach Mach 1!”
I hope he doesn’t burn up on re-entry.
Maybe I shouldn’t have pointed out that his shoelace was untied!
Wait for me, unless you’re chasing a space squirrel!
Hey Red, how do you stop this thing?? Red?!? RED!!!
Flying Away To Pluto
mnc1972 "3-2-1 Liftoff
And we have lift off! Hey, wait for meeee!
Red, it’s not time for the spacewalk!
A few more spins and I’m right behind you!
Rover:“Red? Where’d you go? Red?”
Liftoff!
“I hope he’s back in time to feed me dinner.”
“Fly Him To The Moon, Let Him Play Among The Stars”
“To Infinity and Beyond”!
“Uh, Houston… we have lift off!…”
Red are you going to get us LUNCH ???
A small step for Rover , a huge leap for Red
Red. Come back! You have my Milky Bones!
We are going to need a bigger merry go round
Wait for me, Red! I thought we were just playing? You’re REALLY going to the moon?!
“Now how do I catch up with Red?”
“Wonder if we’ll pass the Dog Star?”
Brian, this is my favorite strip. In today’s world we need more feel good things. Thank you so much.
“Hope the captain comes back soon. I don’t know how to stop this thing.”
3…2…1…and we have liftoff!
We have liftoff!
Yes! The Merry-go-round has Sling-shot Red to Escape Velocity!
I thought no one could hear you scream in space?!
Oh! sorry. I guess that was the anti-gravity button.
Must’ve seen a space squirrel
Well, pop goes THAT weasel!
Flunked again.
Oops. I meant to say centripetal, not centrifugal.
Let me know if you see any alien squirrels
Hey!! Wait for me!
I told him to buckle up!
Sigh. Just like Michael Collins, I have to stay in the Command Module Columbia.
Red We Have A Problem, not Houston!!!
F.A.T.P. – Flung About Twenty Parsecs
Now I need to eat some grass.
Now he lets go of my leash
An enclosed helmet isn’t such a good idea for nauseated humans!
To the Moon, Red! To the Moon!
Bring back some…. MARTIAN KIBBLE!!
“Oh boy. That’s going to be a loud sonic boom”
“I thought he would’ve gone higher…”
….and he’s off!
And this time a dog launches a human into space!
“Hope he brings me back a moon rock”
Brian, get back to work right now, before Red gets hurt.
I hope Red’s parachute opens.
“See no gravity”
Wait for me!
I wonder how far he’ll go in zero gravity?
“I think Red is the one that needs a leash.”
I hope he is going to come back with something good from the Milky Way!
There goes Red in search of new treats for me!
I hope he stops before he lands in another comic strip
You didn’t mention this EVA included a flight among the planets!!
Wait, You forgot your lunch!
Hey Red! You launched without me!
Are you sure John Glenn started this way
“Huston. We have a negative on that orbital trajectory.” – Calvin and Hobbes.
Looks like the escape pod works.
Houston, we have a problem.
F.A.T.P. BUBBLE May 1/2024. “Space Walkies?”
To the Thompson’s trampoline and not beyond
I forgot the countdown
Maybe I should’ve asked about his plans for reentry…
“….and he has achieved escape velocity….!!
Aaaaaand, we have lift-off.
“Well, THIS seems perfectly safe.”
Is this really how John Glenn got started?!
I think I’m going to be sick.
And we have liftoff!
Up up and away
WEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
Wow! What a wonderful first venture into space!
Is it time to go eat supper already?
Houston, we have lift off, all systems nominal.
Don’t forget to bring be back a milky bone!
“Dizzy, I’m so dizzy my head is spinning, like a whirlpool it never ends….”
WAIT!!!! Take me with you!!!
Hey!, I thought Spacewalk practice wasn’t til tomorrow.
(Accidental) LIFT OFF!
“Wait, what about your parachute?”
Seat belt! Seat belt!
Oops, a centrifuge mishap
Wheeeeee this is so much fun… right Red? Red? RED!
There goes my meal ticket!
This is going to be a quick spacewalk
Wait! We didn’t make a splash down plan!
“Last in space”
He’s good. That’s the sound Astronauts make when hurling through space.
“Houston, we have liftoff.”
“Does this mean I get to have the lunch your mom packed?”
He’s finally faster than me
I guess he wasn’t ready for woof speed!
“If the next word is ‘squirrel’ I’ve got this in the bag.”
And we have liftoff…
I bet he’ll make it to Poughkeepsie…
Tell mom I’ll be home by dinner
Catch you on reentry, me boy!
Now I understand the reason for the helmet
“Free at last. I am free at last.”
Wait! You forgot to make a splash down plan!
One giant leap for mankind!
That’s the wrong direction!!!
Wait. You forgot your mission specialist.
I think I’m gonna hurl on this tilt-a-whirl.
We’re racing to the moon and I’m giving him a 3 month head start
Heading 230 degrees, slightly left of course
“I always knew he was from outer space.”
“Red, I think I missed the class that gave instructions on what to do with my tail”
B. Wallace
I hope he can bring Brian Basset back with him!
aand…we have lift-off!
Houston….We Have Lift Off!
Take off was great. Reentry may be painful.
‘’this is just a simulation!’’
“Bye! Too spinny for you Red?”
I TOLD HIM TO HANG ON WITH ALL FOUR PAWS.
Next!!!
Whoops! Wrong galaxy!
Hope he sticks the landing.
“At least he’s wearing a helmet.”
Houston we have lift off!
One small step for Mankind, one giant step to the emergency room!
Real test pilots don’t use the ejection seat!
Frisbee Red
Whirling Dervish.
This kind of thing wouldn’t happen if you used all four legs
His takeoff was excellent, but his re-entry is gonna be real rough!
“He’d better not be practicing to beat me home from the bus stop!”
Red is a shoe in.
’Where’s he going?’
‘Did I miss the countdown?’
To infinity and beyond.
Oop. Scuse me! Red needs more Rover Rocket Fuel. PFFFTT. PFFFFTTT.And, his knee pads.
Whee, don’t float too far away or I’d miss you.
“Let me know what kind of cheese the moon is made of!”
I said lunch, not launch…
“You were supposed to wait for the countdown!”
Whew. I’ll stay on Earth, thanks.
Whew. I’ll just greet you on reentry.
Whew! I think l’ll just greet you on reentry!
You forgot to attach your leash before leaving the shuttle!
I hope Red prepared for his Landing!
“I see a space walk in my future.”
Looks like there is a space walk in my future.
I guess he forgot to attach the teether ball line before his space walk?
1. “I hope his is a super soft landing.”2. “It doesn’t look that fun from here!”
“And they say that I need a leash.”
Launched a little too early, a little too low.
“Yup, he’s goin’ where no kid went before…”
Uh, oh! I think we forgot the parachute!
So, Laika finally gets her revenge!
I hope he does not crash into George Jetson
How do I stop this thing?
Don’t leave the launch vehicle!
“Our purpose is to study shedding in space”
“I thought this was safe for people.”
Watch out for that space alien!! Oh, wait… never mind. that’s just mom.
I’m so dizzy, my head is spinning!
perhaps we should have put the leash on you.
10,9,8….BLASTOFF!
