Contest Directions: 
An undisclosed sum of money by the Canadian golf equipment company Element 21 was paid to the Russian Central Space Agency to make the first ever space golf shot. It was made in open space on the International Space Station, and was aired on TV. After a long preparation the Russian cosmonaut Mikhail Tyurin finally struck the ball ... and shanked a mishit - that awful moment when you hit the ball with the heel of the club and it goes off in some unpredictable direction.
The ball will now travel for more than three years, or 460 million miles before falling into Earth's atmosphere.
It's not every day you get paid an undisclosed sum of money for a mishit golf shot. First, you gotta be Russian, second, you gotta be in space, and third you gotta have balls to play. Which seems like discrimination to me - what, women can't apply?
In this contest you are asked to photoshop astronauts playing golf in
space: open space, moon, other planets, International Space Station,
etc.
