Cosmonaut Pavel Vinogradov may be hitting a golf-plated golf ball into orbit during an August spacewalk as a publicity stunt for Element 21 Golf Co. 

At this time, NASA officials are determining if this stunt will be safe and will make a final decision at a later date; The Russian space agency have already given the go-ahead.

Ah, there's nothing better then cluttering up empty space.  I just hope he doesn't send the ball flying into the spacecraft...  now that wouldn't be good.

Update:  The golf  ball publicity stunt is the no go.  [Link]
