Nasa Space Puns

An Astro-not.

Because they've got the Write Stuff.

It'll be the herd shot 'round the world.

It's called an Astro knot

A polo

They're really raising the steaks

My Dad has recently shown a fascination with space and NASA. Long story short, Christmas is coming up and my plan is to surprise him with an all expense paid trip to Florida for 4 days with passes to the Kennedy Space Center. I’d schedule it around a launch so he would be able to see it in person. As well as checking out the area a bit since we’re there.

Which is where I need your help! I want to coordinate hints with presents that slightly hint at the trip. For example, I picked out a NASA tshirt, a space shuttle plush toy, assorted astronaut ice cream, socks that have planets and a rocket on them, mug that says “coolest dad in the galaxy,” a map/atlas of florida, and luggage tags. And the final gift I’m thinking will be a letter that puts all the clues together and would include the plane tickets, car rental agreement, hotel confirmation, and the admission tickets in an envelope.

Can anyone give me ideas on what hints to use??

• I’m still adding/taking away present ideas so if anyone has any better ideas please let me know!!

Thank you so much!! Any type of help is appreciated!! I don’t really have that “creative” part of the mind... whether it be a rhyme or dad joke-y type hint, it doesn’t matter!

Which is probably why he got fired from his job at N.A.S.A.

NASA decided to send a vegetable to space. After the rough takeoff the spud soiled himself.

Operation Spud-Nik turned violent when the astronauts, due to unforeseen circumstances, ran out of food. It wasn't long before the five guys came up with a plan. They unearthed him and gouged his eyes out. As unappealing as it sounded, spud was sliced up, fried and eaten. Noone seemed to mind a little assault. Sometimes spaceflight is unpredictable and dirty sacrifices must be made.

"NASA announced today that it has space for new astronauts."

Him: Did you hear about NASA's new nose picking in space initiative?

Me: Wait what? No...

Him: In a recent interview they said "It's snot rocket science."

My girlfriend and I were at a NASA exhibit at the National Museum of the US Airforce.

The NASA exhibit had a long ramp to the top of the exhibit.

Dad with Daughter -- "Gee, can you believe they got a ramp up in space like this?"

Daughter -- sigh "Daaaad!"

housemate 1. : "I'd love a beagle"

me: "what the space probe?"

Housemate 2. : "sigh* shut up...are they difficult to manage?"

me: "i'd expect so, it took half of NASA to put it on mars"

the response was furrowed brow's and giggles.

My dad loves this one. He asks people what their major is/was in school and after they tell him he always says "When i was in school i took up space." At least a few people have responded with "You mean like NASA?!"

For a quick insight I want to be an astronaut and have a love for space.

Dad: how does NASA plan a party?

Me: I don't know, how?

Dad: they planet.

I laughed for a solid ten minutes.
