Members SuperBacon Posted February 27, 2024 Members Posted February 27, 2024 Lance Bass of Nsync nearly went into space. He completed cosmonaut training and was going to be part of a documentary about a celebrity going into space on the Soyuz capsule to the ISS. It was discovered in his medicals that he had a heart condition so he had surgery to correct it and entered astronaut training, but the documentary fell through. They went to MTV but then they were worried he might die in space, so all the other sponsors pulled out and he was replaced. Mad. Quote
