In Honor of Neil Armstrong

I don't know enough canon history in any TF continuity to pull this off, but I would love to see a bot who remembers the first TF ventures into space fanbotting all over a human astronaut or cosmonaut. Because TFs don't have to worry about anoxia, hard landings (much), radiation, etc., etc., but humans do, and we have walked on another planet anyway. I picture this bot/femme/Seeker/whatever burbling geekily about how humans set up this process that has like two dozen points at which if anything went wrong they'd be dead, and then they just strap themselves in and go, and people have died and they kept on going, and Earth should be called the Wheeljack Planet, seriously, this species is brilliantly insane, etc. Bonus points if you can work in the lyrics to "Phoenix," "Hope Eyrie," or another space filk.
