He deserves the title of astronaut.
You go ride a controlled explosion up a couple hundred thousand feet and make it back - you get the title too.....
It' s about as close to flying an airplane as riding a bus is to being launched out of a cannon....

I wonder about the small things. Do we know if Billy was catheritized or butt plugged/flushed out? He is 90 after all.
Being told you're delusional does not necessarily mean you're mental.

He’s a helluva lot closer to ‘cargo’ than ‘astronaut’.

Analogy? Metaphor?
No, you used neither analogy nor metaphor.
The only reason I would have watched William Shatner fly to space would be the same reason I’d watch a stock car race: hoping for a crash.

I think there was an original Star Trek episode titled "The Trouble With Boru's"
NO, sorry, it was called "The Trouble With Tribbles".
But you are absolutely correct that people watch track car racing for the potential of accidents. We are a sadistic species.

I'd rather see Yvonne Craig in green body paint.

Some of us like cars, too.
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!

I thought he did a great job in the original series. And I liked him more in T.J Hooker.

So do you think his opinion about space and spaceflight is irrelivant?
