the posterchild for cutting nasa funding. a deranged astronaut who attempted to assault (perhaps even kidnap) another women who she suspected was involved with her "lover". however, the problem was that nowak was already married (for 19 years) and that she wasn'
t actually in any type of relationship beyond friendship with the guy involved. nowak claims she just wanted to talk with the other chick, but ended up spraying her with mace when the other
woman didn't comply. the cops found a knife and a mallet in her car, and they are now trying to charge her w/ attempted murder (which
will be tough to prove). most
people are trashing this story and making fun of nowak for driving 900 miles from
houston to orlando to approach this
woman, traveling nonstop and wearing diapers so her bladder didn't slow her down.
