Post by: aldo_14 on February 06, 2007, 03:20:09 am: http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/world/americas/6333975.stm

A US astronaut has been charged with trying to kidnap a woman she thought was a rival for the affection of a space shuttle pilot.

Navy Capt Lisa Nowak, 43, who flew to the international space station last July, was charged with attempted kidnapping, battery and other crimes.

She drove from Texas to Florida to confront Colleen Shipman, disguised in a wig and trench coat.
