Explanation:
A historic first Space
Quidditch match came to a
spectacular conclusion last night as astronaut
Michael Lopez-Alegria caught the Golden Snitch to give
the Americans a hard fought victory over the Russians.
"The Russians used brilliant strategy, but only
NASA
had the T2KQMU (Thunderbolt 2000 Quidditch Maneuvering Unit),"
commented
Lopez-Alegria, pictured above squeezing the elusive
Golden Snitch in his left hand.
Happy
April Fools Day from the folks at
APOD.
In reality, Astronauts
Jeff Wisoff and Lopez-Alegria are
shown space-walking last October during a
space shuttle mission to help build the
International Space Station.
