Mainland China has sent its first woman into space, and now the buzz is they’ll send a Hongkonger up next. That got us thinking of a brave new world: Hong Kong in space. What might that be like?
- Air con turned super high because of all the solar wind
- Shuttle 69X
- Astronaut helmets retrofitted with an artificial atmosphere laced with heavy metals to better simulate conditions back home
- Failing to become an astronaut becomes a great new way to permanently disappoint parents
- Moon torn down and replaced with cluster of office blocks
- Secret wine cellar discovered in basement of Henry Tang’s terraformed asteroid
- "Space walks" replaced with "space cab rides even though it's just 50 meters"
- Prometheus Garden Estates
- Haters complaining to Central government that Hongkongers are mature enough for space, but not enough for democracy
- Aggressively pushing “door close” on space elevator
- Mooncakes renamed “cakes”
- Satellite exclusively tracking Cantopop star wardrobe malfunctions finally launched
- Special area of space blocked off with velvet rope for VIPs
- Tsui Wah in Space = freeze-dried milk tea!
- Probably someone would take a picture
