I'm trying to decipher what's going on in the bottom right stamp of scan #1. Some cosmonauts appear to be engaging in foreplay out in the vacuum of space. They are most likely protected by the magical rays of the orange space diamond.

Upon closer inspetion, it may not be foreplay, but one cosmonautgiving another a tattoo... in the vacuum of space.

They'd still better watch out; it looks like James Bond is trying to steal the space diamond.

kingmonkey - I think it is a case of nipple stimulation...in a vacuum.

"Soviet nipple stimulator" sounds like one hell of a westling move! Or a sex toy, à la French Tickler, or Nigerian Skin Sucker.

Expat47--I cannot take any credit for the brilliant "embiggen," which is a coinage famous among SIMPSONS fans.

It's a perfectly cromulent word.
