Spatulas In Space

This from yesterday's New York Times:

"The spacewalk went without major incident, but Mr. Sellers lost one of his spatulas, and mission control confirmed that it had been spotted drifting away from the shuttle.

"'It's of no hazard to us,' said Tomas Gonzalez-Torres, the mission's chief spacewalk officer, adding that the 14-inch-long metal tool would be tracked by radar."

Mmm, space barbecue.
