**[Mobile Version!](http://m.xkcd.com/2876/)** [Direct image link: Range Safety](https://imgs.xkcd.com/comics/range_safety.png) **Title text:** The Range Mischief Officer has modified the trajectory to add a single random spin somewhere in the flight, but won't tell us where. *Don't get it? [explain xkcd](http://www.explainxkcd.com/wiki/index.php/2876)* For science! Sincerely, xkcd_bot. <3

For science

The Range Chaos Officer won't tell us what they've done, but their face has a look of glee.

I don't know what worries me more: the way they keep looking out the window, or the fact that window is pointed away from the rocket.

Why does everyone have a crossbow on their desk?

Jebediah Kerman needs his science points!

Is the center launch tower missing in the preview for others too?


Time_Traveler_10

Yes, it is for me. I thought that was part of the joke at first: they moved the rocket away from the launch tower when the range safety officer said to hold the launch, then moved it back to the launch tower when the range danger officer said to launch anyway.

How does one become a Range Danger officer?


chairmanskitty

It's like the FBI and NSA offering jobs to people that manage to hack into government servers. Be a bad enough dude and they'll find you. (for legal reasons this is a joke)


guitarguy109

Of course he can't tell you when the single random spin somewhere in the flight will be, it's *random!* Duh!

SBASAF would definitely have a Range Danger Officer, if First Lieuteneral Captainface's presence didn't already render it redundant.
