Space Launch Puns

I bet his competitors will be annoyed at how much they need to lift their game.

Bringing forth a new era of crude spaceflight

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

Because it’s no longer auto immune.

(Told to my by my actual dad. The screenshot of his text got removed from /r/funny :( )

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!

"listen honey, its not that i want a divorce, i just think i need some space." Then i would put on my helmet and slow walk to the launch pad.

We both follow SpaceX and were disappointed to see their failed launch. I asked him if he has checked their stock lately and he simply replied "No but I'm sure it hasn't 'taken off' lately"

Over heard from downstairs 6 year old brother: "dad! I need lunch money for tomorrow" Dad:"launch money? What're you getting launched into outer space tomorrow?"
