It would, definitely, but how bad it could be depends on how big the station is. If it is large enough relative to the ship, no one would notice. Otherwise you would have to do some work to counter balance the station. Nasa Ames does an annual contest for space colony designs by middle and high school students. The vast majority use rotation, and a number of them talk about how docking and transfer would be achieved. The grand prize winners are posted here.

If you look at the spectrum of the dress, you can plainly see that it is, in fact all colours, with the exception of black of course. How many rocks are on the Moon?

A strange one: The Goodyear Inflatoplane

Indeed. It is nice to talk about going to Mars, and there are many arguments that could be made that for colonization purposes, Mars is leaps and bounds better than the Moon. But Mars is very far away, just in order to get a human there you would have to fly them for longer than the longest single stay in space ever, and the crew would not even be on the ground yet. Suggesting that in just a few years a long term base on Mars reasonably could happen is pretty out there, as it would constitute a massive project for any state or coalition. If such a project is happening, it needs to get started very soon. As Nibb said, there is not really a reason for it anyway. Probably the first bases will be more ISS-like. A crew can stay, either permanently or every so often, bring supplies from Earth and perhaps supplement their food with a greenhouse of sorts. Resource utilization might be investigated, but the primary goal will be science, as it was in the (planned) Apollo Applications missions. China and Russia might like to get their hands on some of the materials there for industry, but the cost to bring them back to Earth will make them overpriced for anything beyond research and novelty. The base will not need to build anything really large, perhaps a 3D printer will come along, but it will be stocked with material from Earth. Though water might be available for drinking/fueling purposes at the pole, scientists will want to look at it carefully, not mine and melt and alter it. We already have some pretty good means to recycle and use water effectively for spaceflight, and a base on the Moon will follow the traditions of the ISS most probably. So, could China have a base on the Moon in the foreseeable future? They have probably the ability, technically, to begin a programme to do so, probably would feature a few more robotic landers, followed by brief manned landings, and then combinations which would land people, robots, and supplies to build longer term facilities. Slowly the length of time crews would spend on the surface would grow, but no one would really live on the Moon for more than a few months to a year probably. Is it possible? I think so. Not a colony but an outpost. The main issue is sadly political will. China wants to look good in space, but it also wants to do other things, and with major manned projects such as a base would be, there is ample risk. China does not want to look bad when their crews killed or rockets fail or robots malfunction.

He started as the helmsman on the Enterprise D, then became more of the transporter chief, then transferred DS9. By then end of that show, he was heading to Earth to teach engineering, hardly a dead end job in my view. (but the comic is pretty good, it could be a very boring job just sitting there)

Granted. You get a box, silvery grey and unadorned. It might see into the future, but you will never be sure. I wish for 30cm or more of snow to fall here in the next couple days.

Cockroaches are not alone in their role, other organisms eat through decaying wood and similar thing to them. I suppose that there may be environmental differences that define the land of the cockroach from elsewhere. Where I live, I have never encountered them. Perhaps you could move something else to the regions where the cockroach lives, or more likely several other organisms could take its place together, no engineering and relocation needed. Organisms go extinct, and they do not always cause total environmental collapse when they go. If the cockroach disappeared tomorrow, there might just be more rats and mice and other creatures doing the same things in a few months. As I said, I do not really deal with these most fearsome and horrid of beasts, hideous to behold as they are. I have been thankfully spared much of the mental scaring that accompanies every encounter with them, and as such I cannot compare my naive opinions with those of battle hardened forum goers who know the true power and terror that a cockroach can inflict. But, why? I mean, they just are other organisms, who cares if you do not like how they look or how they feed themselves. They generally do not pose much danger to people, and we probably could spend our time and energy elsewhere. Anyone ever heard of poverty? Or ongoing ethnic violence? Anyone interested in developing cures for diseases, or exploring the moons of Neptune? There are many things that deserve more attention than the cockroach, who is, as far as I can tell, pretty much just minding its own business.

Are not a threat or fear when you have a mountain full of gold.

Granted. It comes out and works flawlessly, even including support for a mode in which multiple players can each operate one Kerbal, doing EVA's and operating the ships. I wish that there occurred at a manageable safe (but very close) distance a supernova, which begins to be noticeable while the star is actively being monitored.

It does. But your thoughts, and consequently actions, are rendered proportionally slower to the rest of the world. Come May, you are in a hospital bed, having not eaten for over two months, and only being fed through IV's. I wish for a decent sized asteroid to be found on a course which will impact the Earth, so that it can be studied as it fly's through the atmosphere under observation.

Contrary to popular beleif, love is not, in fact, a battelfeild. Really, love is the name of a secret military base, burried deep inside the alps. It was established by Julius Caesar at some point around 55BCE, and expanded greatly by Emporers Trajan and Hadrian. Since then, it has been continuously inhabited by the last true citizens of the Roman Empire. That, is love. What is my motivation for completing this scholarship application?

5/10. Is that flying in a cloud of dust?

9/10. It is pretty nice, well formatted, and interesting, related and not too messy.

Granted. They remake it, for a holographic simulator, and they build such facilities all over the world, for free access so that all can enjoy it. I wish that the frustrations about Pluto nomenclature would be resolved.

Not explicitly KSP, but nearly everything I have done in Blender is quite spacey.

I know a guy who builds rockets.

Being made of few parts, and only going at low speed (avoiding all ladders, too), the kraken pays me no heed. But it does notice the next fellow.

That was my view on it for a long time, but I have come to agree more with the thought that it is meaningless. As I see it, the reason that all the organisms we see try to reproduce and further their genes, is not that that is inherent to life, but that the organisms that are best able to, and most predisposed to reproduce have more offspring, and thus are more populous. Take four bacteria. One really does nothing, it just sort of floats around in the water, another one who likes to eat copious amounts, number three which divides with abandon, and number four, which both eats and divides, it will probably not be long before only the offspring of number four are still around. Maybe number three will have some success, but not nearly as much. One and two were not going against some inherent rules of life, they just did not have any duplication of their genes.

Voskhod also really was just a modified Vostok in many ways, trying, as Bill Phill said, to snag some firsts without having to wait for Soyuz. They could fly three people in it, but there was no room for the airlock with three people, thus when they did the first EVA they flew with only two. Also, to save weight, they removed the ejection seat system that Vostok had. It was not a terribly great vehicle, had no emergency rocket to abort a launch, and it is probably for the best in my view that only five people flew it. If anything had gone wrong there would not have been a way to save the crews, at really any stage of the mission.

Books, maps, and photographs, mostly. I have a bunch of science reports from various missions, several surveyor missions, Magellan, Viking, a few books about astrogeology, and a range of maps from the USGS of different bodies, Mars, Io, several satellites of Saturn, Mercury, the Moon et cetera. Some of them are global maps, and some are smaller regions. I also have some photographs from space missions, several prints that were made of Lunar Orbiter V images when they were new, and the same for other planets and moons. Some of it is fairly generic, in that it is only a copy of a book or map or photo. But some of them are interesting in their being the property of a particular individual; I have Eugene Shoemaker's copy of the Surveyor VI Preliminary Report, for instance. Just about all of these I received for free.

Your prison sentence is infinite in length (not one of those silly 500 year deals). I wish that the next posted wish goes uncorrupted.

Many kings juggle, by gosh yes! qglgqop (generated in python)

A bit of investigation suggests that the Apollo crews would have received perhaps about 1% the radiation that airline flight crews get in a year, even long Skylab visits remain lower than a year on an airline. Of course a Mars mission would be markedly longer and more radiation ridden most probably. That said, there are some suggestions that airline crews are at much greater risk to get melanoma than the general public, so flying like that may not be without some health impacts.

Who needs the treadmill when you can have a dog?

Oh. Ughh. That movie. I remember it, and it certainly was, bad. I am pretty sure the Fox Mulder liked it, or at least he watched it in an X-Files episode.
