Forget scientific discoveries and historic contributions to the human understanding of space, I am shocked and appalled at the degrading and objectifying images of flowers on Dr. Matt Taylor's shirt.

    .... so, you haven't been to Hawaii? Those flowers and hence, shirts with those flowers are all over the place, only more commonly in bright red.

      C'mon! Those shirts are great. Kinda de riguer from Palm Beach County, south. I remember in the late 60's and early 70's hunting for them in Philly and NYC vintage clothing stores and paying astronomical sums for the genuine article. They were a bit scary when you were wearing one while tripping out, but that was half the fun.

      The louder, the better. lol

        Yes, the tattoo arms and dull colors don't work, but l have a blue, white one that looks similar to that!

        Hawaiian shirts are sacred, at least for me they are!

        Nothing a little whisky can't fix.

        That what folks look like after just 4 hours going up against me - right before they close the coffin lid. :-)

    I like it, it's like camo-colored flowers... Neat concept.

      I like it too and his style. I was just kidding around with that. He's a cool guy breaking ground in science and exploration. Landing the robot on a comet was a historical undertaking, a huge accomplishment that is producing new information. But some shrill voices drowned that out by complaining about the shirt he was wearing.
