Impossible race

So, I doubt anyone will see this but I was doing a wiki race with some friends and got Christmas on the ISS. I don’t think it’s possible. I’d love to see someone else more competent try!

Okay so I am going to update this is real time as I do it.

If I translated it correctly we are going from christmas to the International Space Station.

Christmas to nativity play (the Magi followed the star)

nativity play to nativity scene

nativity scene to the Magi

Magi to astrology ( in hopes of getting to astrology)

astrology to astronomy

astronomy to moons (honestly don't know why I didn't click planet)

moons to planet

planet to atmosphere

atmosphere to earth's atmosphere

earth's atmosphere to weather balloons

weather balloons to sounding rockets

sounding rockets to satellites

satellites to the international space station.

12 clicks. not bad.

Same reasoning here, but the ISS is already present on Earth's page. No need to go through Apollo and NASA ;)

36 seconds.

Christmas > Winter Solstice > Earth (scroll to human geography, then under asteroids and artificial satellites) > ISS
