Saturday Morning Cereal Time with . . . a Giant Ball of Yarn?

Quisp cereal may not be available in stores these days, but that doesn’t stop up from enjoying the extremely stupid (and I mean that in a good way) classic commercials by Jay Ward.

So does NASA have to deal with giant balls of yarn in space on a regular basis or did they eliminate the last of the great yarn balls back in the sixties?
