Apparently NASA are Planning on sending a man to Mars on it's deep Space probe "Olof Prail", apparently named after the Swedish Engineer. Discuss

A fitting tribute to a great engineer, in my opinion. His invention of a machine to accurately measure the gullibility of mankind will never be forgotten.

Aren't April Fools gags meant to be at least slightly plausible? Why does no-one put in the effort anymore?

[johntheplamf]

Sorry, but my bast football team in Europe one went down well, Mr Olof Prail has been a busy man

[johntheplamf]

Bast???, sorry best.

I think it is very sexist, they should send a woman.  Carol Vorderman springs to mind.
