In an attempt to boost popular interest in the Space Program, NASA decides to sponsor a contest between each of the States. The State with the best proposal for a mission would recieve a Federal grant for their school budget and the pride of being the State that went into space.
NASA officials spent an entire weekend listening to the proposals.
The Representative from Connecticut made his pitch.
"Sirs, we propose a trip to Mars" he said.
"But the atmosphere of Mars isn't breathable," the board member replied, "how will you survive?"
"Simple," the man answered, "we have designed suits that will provide us with breathable air and the correct pressure."
"Very well, your proposal will be considered."
The Representative from Wisconsin approached the Board.
"Sirs, we propose a trip to Pluto" he said.
"But the temperature on Pluto is near absolute Zero," the Board member replied, "how will you survive?"
"Simple," the man answered, "we have designed suits that will provide us with the correct body heat."
"Very well, your proposal will be considered."
The Representative from Arkansas made his pitch.
"Uh, Yeah...We'd likes to go to th' Sun!"
"Impossible!" the Board member replied, "the temerature of the Sun would sublimate any known substance! How could you possibly hope to do this?!?"
"Ah, no problem there," the man answered, "we's gonna go at night!"

(No offense to Arkansonians {?}, just a joke...😎 )
