Houston, we have a virus!
http://news.cnet.com/8301-13554_3-10027754-33.html
"NASA has confirmed that a computer on the International Space Station is infected with a virus (see Houston, we have a virus). The malicious software is called W32.TGammima.AG and technically it's a worm. The interesting point, other than how could NASA let this happen, is the way the worm spreads - on USB flash drives."

Someone must have done it intentionally?? I'm most sure that the platforms for those computers isn't the same as the ones on earth, who ever did it must have some understanding of the OS. Secondly, I am not sure why a worm would be a huge deal other than it probably scares you to death knowing that not everything is functioning 100%
