This morning around 9:45 EST, NASA lost communication with the International Space Station(ISS).

Turns out flight controllers on the ground in Houston were just backing up system software, which malfunctioned, and the backup computer isn't working either. The Russians were able to communicate with the ISS as it flew over ground stations there, and they assure us everyone is fine, although this is now sounding a lot like the plot to a 007 movie.

Top Ten other possibilities include:

1) Silver Surfer/Galactus
2) Dr. Evil
3) Lex Luthor
4) The Zentradi
5) Daleks
6) Borg
7) HAL 9000
8) Cylons
9) That stupid little robot from "Space Camp"
10) And of course:



What do you think?

Update
Power has been restored!
