I just can't stop wondering how this was ever a sensible headline. Maybe people in general just not built up the vocabulary for this? Maybe there just weren't reliable generally agreed upon meanings for words like orbit and launch? Maybe even the word space was ambiguous enough that you had to add "115 miles into" so that people wouldn't think the US had hurled a man into some area somewhere.

It helps convey how hard you have to throw something to get it to space.

"He was about to pick up the bird when the latter quacked and exploded with a loud rapport..." Thank goodness it clarified which party quacked and then exploded, I was thinking for a moment it was the man and not the yeasty duck.

Honestly that hardly even bothers me when the article's full of delicious phrases/potential epitaphs like "penetrated by a fragment of flying duck"

I'll admit, I went back and read it out loud to my wife once I hit "his duckship."

Maybe even the word space was ambiguous enough that you had to add "115 miles into" so that people wouldn't think the US had hurled a man into some area somewhere. This was the first American man in space. Don't forget that the space program was a series of increasing distances, eventually beyond the atmosphere, including unmanned, animal, and finally human payloads (before the revolt of the pilots). The headline is a perfect reflection of the program at that time. Edit: I found the source article on the Times site.

I woke up in the middle of the night a few nights back and started thinking about old X-Men comics, you know, as a perfectly normal brain operates, and it struck me that Sentinels - those nutty old mass-produced murder robots - were built with the ability to breach escape velocity, which I'd always thought was supposed to be a really challenging thing to do

Funny you mention that specifically since if I'm remembering the story right (in keeping with this thread's remit as a place for weird news, naturally) the Sentinels were specifically flying into / at the Sun since they were convinced it was the cause of human mutation and oh my god I just typed that sentence.
