A Virus Arrives At The Space Station
When you read this quote, what’s the first thing that comes to your mind?
A malicious computer virus that steals passwords has been brought on board the International Space Station, Nasa has confirmed.
The virus, known as W32.Gammima.AG, was carried into orbit on laptops brought up by astronauts in July.
The space station’s core operations have not been affected – Nasa described the infection as nothing more than a “nuisance” - but an investigation has been launched into how security systems were breached.
Yeah. If laptops on the ISS actually had an internet connection I would be questioning who was surfing for pr0n. Maybe they should just stick to books while they’re up there.

["I'm sorry, I can't let you do that ... Dave"]
“Houston, we have a problem…!”
