“Houston we have a problem” – Astronaut forgets SD card for his Go Pro at home. He only realises while in space.

You’re 400 kilometres away from home, namely in the space. You turn on your Go Pro to take once in a life time photo. You press the button and the screen states ‘No SD’.

This might well be the plot of a comedy, and it’s probably funny had it not been really experienced by a NASA astronaut. Luckily NASA and the astronaut saw the funny side of it.

“Houston we have a problem”, the epic phrase is  and well suited to the history of the astronaut of NASA . The man was in space 400 kilometres away from home when he agreed that the GoPro he brought with him did not have a memory card. An oversight that has faced with much irony. In fact, by contacting the command centre he asked laughingly: “I press the button but the message ‘No SD’ appears, do you have any ideas?”. The radio silence of the base was very eloquent: for the astronaut, no selfies or viral videos.

But the video of the experience is doing the rounds. If you haven’t seen it yet, here it is.
