Astronaut Lisa Marie Nowak is being charged with attempted kidnapping, battery, and attempted vehicle burglary after she drove from Texas to Florida to confront Colleen Shipman, the "other woman" in a relationship with fellow astronaut Bill Oefelein.  Nowak came bearing all the normal stalker equipment:  Trench coat, wig, knife, BB pistol, and latex gloves.  The article says police "also found diapers, which Nowak said she used so she wouldn't have to stop on the 1,000-mile drive."  Apparently, astronauts are given special purpose diapers to be worn during space walks, takeoff, and reentry.  To this, I have two things to say: 
  1. What car is capable of driving 1000 miles without stopping?  Why don't I own one?
  2. Astronauts get diapers specifically made for space travel?  Why don't I have any?
