    Most astronauts only go about 250 miles up, the distance from Cleveland to Cincinnati. That said, Neil Armstrong got a lot further away from Ohio.

    Surely Jim Lovell would have been the Ohian to get the furthest from Ohio? (Apollo 13 altitude record)

      New Mexico

        That was set in the 60s. Mississippi isn't nearly that bad. It's bad, but it ain't Mississippi Burning bad.

          Mississippi doesn't have enough character to be the worst. It seems to be bad in every way, but it doesn't have the flair for actively destructive stupidity that make Florida and Texas what they are.

            Florida. Heat, humidity, stench of water from the sprinkler systems, lousy coffee from the crappy drinking water, most jobs literally don't allow you to work OT. Many only hire 32 hour people. Terrible drivers, especially all the Qtip bitches that should've stopped driving 20 years ago. Redneck Nation. Massive POS politics.

            Fuck Florida.

              IMO - Texas, while places like Mississippi, Arkansas, and Oklahoma always rank below, I believe Texas is actively trying to kill itself. Those other states are poorer and more rural. Texas has the resources and money to be one of the most prosperous states. Yet, they keep voting for Greg Abbott (aka piss baby), Ken Paxton, and Ted Cruz. People there are so brainwashed that they believe anyone who is not an uber republican will come and make all the frog gay, let kids poop in liter-boxes, and give all their money to drug addicts. It's just sad. I finally just gave up on trying to make any difference there and left for the sake of my kids.

              A perfect example is my mother-in-law who HATES Greg Abbott. She blames him for leaving the state for dead during snowmageddon. So she just refuses to vote in Governor elections.

                  Wyoming. Corrupt, cold, ugly if you're not rich, and full of morons who do things like thank coal workers for their service.

                      Florida, Louisiana, Mississippi are all shit holes honestly same goes for Houston TX as well. I'm not saying my state of Oklahoma is any better. I lived in California for 4 years and kill to go back however it's just too expensive

                          At this point I'm certain the guy is from Kentucky, and just proved his point like a boss.

                            California? You need to tell me your dealer, because I'd like to have an ounce of what you're smoking. At least we give our citizens healthcare.

                              Albuquerque was ok but I don't think I stayed long enough to properly judge it.

                                Probably Mississippi, Oklahoma, or West Virginia

                                And with all the MAGA turds that moved to Florida and it’s terrible government it’s gotta be close to those top 3

                                      By the numbers, probably Mississippi. Lowest life expectancy, highest infant mortality rate, second highest poverty rate...being ranked 39th in education actually seems to be a bright spot for them.

                                          Ohio, it's a statistical fact.

                                          More people from Ohio have become astronauts than any other state/territory in the world

                                          Because when youre an Astronaut you can get as far away from Ohio as humanely possible. No one else has that kind of motivation to complete the rigorous training.

                                          Even before astronauts were a thing. Ohio inspired two men to invent airplanes, because they had already traveled to the East Coast by then, and couldn't run across the ocean to get further from Ohio. They had to adapt and learn to fly

                                          You don't understand. It's not too escape Ohio. It's because the void calls. It reminds one of home. The dark, unfeeling, lethal, soul crushing expanse of space reminds one of the home void. We want to bridge between the two. Bring together the V̵̮̈́ ̴̜͑ȍ̷̜ ̴͜͝i̶̲̿ ̴͉̊d̵̺͆
