Anybody want to guess at what this might be?

"...The main "surprise feature" however is reported as clean of bugs....."

C'mon, nobody wants to guess - personally I'd don't have any idea what could be in store for us... just thought that I'd ask... :-*

It's a surprise feature, I don't think anyone knows what they have in store for us.

I think it is the full use of the toilet.  ;D j/k.  It will be interesting to see what is really implemented.

Preparing a checklist for this procedure should be fun! ;)

That could really be taxing for Mission Control to coordinate -- just wonder if there will be enough "genital cups" to go around???  :-\

I take it being constipated would be classed as a "launch abort"?

LOL@ that's a good one!!!

uri_ba's comment about "Insertion to Orbit" is a new money-saving technique when fuel reserves become an global-warming issue... or something like that  ;D

All this talk about beans and gas, reminds me of the fart scene in Rocket Man. I will be sure to put on the EVA suit to escape the toxic fumes, or we can just shot the offender into space.  ;D
