ORLANDO, Fla. - A police search of former astronaut Lisa Nowak's car turned up bondage photos on a computer disk, British currency and pills, according to documents released Tuesday by prosecutors.

_{This photo released by the Orlando State's Attorney office on Tuesday April 10, 2007, shows a floppy disk and portable storage devices that were recovered from the car driven by NASA astronaut Lisa Nowak after she was arrested for trying to kidnap a romantic rival. Nowak was arrested in February 2007 after police say she drove from Houston to Florida to confront Air Force Capt. Colleen Shipman. Authorities have said Nowak had an affair with Shipman's boyfriend, Bill Oefelein. The disk contained 16 images, 15 of them showing a woman sometimes nude, according to a forensic examination report by the Orlando Police Department. Nearly all of the images depicted scenes of bondage, the report said. (AP Photo/Orlando State Attorney's office)}

A judge last week agreed to unseal some of the documents in the Nowak's case. She is accused of trying to kidnap a rival for a space shuttle pilot's affections.

Nearly all of the 16 images found on the disk depicted bondage scenes, according to a forensic examination report by the Orlando Police Department. Some of the images showed a nude woman while others were drawings.

The documents did not make clear whether Nowak was the woman in the photos or who the disks belonged to.

Also found were nearly $600, 41 British pounds and four brown paper towels with 69 orange pills. State law enforcement are testing the pills to determine what they are, authorities said.

Investigators also examined two USB drives found in the car that contained family pictures, digital movies and NASA related materials.

They concluded that information found on the disk or the two USB drives did not have any direct evidence related to the attempted kidnapping, the report said.

Nowak's attorney, Donald Lykkebak, declined to comment Tuesday on the newly released documents.

Nowak was arrested in February after police say she drove from Houston to Florida to confront Air Force Capt. Colleen Shipman. Authorities have said Nowak had an affair with Shipman's boyfriend, Bill Oefelein. She pepper-sprayed Shipman through a partially lowered car window, an arrest affidavit said.

Police said they found a BB gun, new steel mallet, a knife and rubber tubing in Nowak's possession. Nowak, 43, pleaded not guilty to attempted kidnapping, burglary with assault and battery. NASA released Nowak from the astronaut corps a month after her arrest. Her trial has been moved to September.

All that is missing in this case is an accusation that the Duke Lacrosse team raped her.

[SmoothTalker]

She sounds like a real space cadet.

[nctexan]

Can you imagine below trapped in the shuttle with that crazy woman?

"Mission Control... We have a problem here!"

[SkyPilot]

The documents did not make clear whether Nowak was the woman in the photos...

Mmmmm K.

[RC2]

I agree..............love is wonderful ain’t it?

In space no one can hear you scream ... especially if the crazy biotch has your mouth duct-taped shut.

[johnny7]

So when’s her next launch?

[Oberon]

They weren’t photos of her face, in other words.

[Al Gator]

Bondage photos???

I KNEW there was something about her I liked!!

[mainepatsfan]

Hopefully NASA is reevaluating their psychological screening process.

“The disk contained 16 images, 15 of them showing a woman sometimes nude, according to a forensic examination report by the Orlando Police Department. Nearly all of the images depicted scenes of bondage, the report said.”

Are they ABSOLUTELY SURE she was lusting after Oefelein and not Shipman?

[mewzilla]

Jeez, did they have to make that public? I feel for her kids.

[null and void]

69 pills? Do they make your tongue hard?

[pissant]

She looks pretty tasty in that pic.

How can a photo show a woman nude "sometimes"? Is it one of those "Magic Eye" pics?

[Lee'sGhost]

OK, now I’m liking this story. If there is any justice to this stupid celebrity worship culture the picture are of Nowak and we WILL get to see them.

[aft_lizard]

BWahahaha, lol I will be laughing in during lectures today thanks.

[randog]

LOL!!

[antiRepublicrat]

A floppy? How 90s!

[mkjessup]

Houston: 'Captain Nowak? Mission Control believes that the re-entry tiles on the shuttle are unable to handle re-entry, we are diverting you to the International Space Station for 90 days until a rescue shuttle can be launched to bring you and your crew home'

Nowak: 'Acknowledged Houston' (mic off) 'AlRIGHT you *MAGGOTS*!!!!, from now on it's *MISTRESS LISA*, DO you underSTAND me?!?!?' (*CRACK*)

Crew (whimpering): 'yes Mistress Lisa! yes Mistress Lisa!'

[isom35]

could they be pics of James Bond?

[agere_contra]

The tenor of the article is slightly strange. She had bondage photos, powerful drugs and (gasp) British currency!

[org.whodat]

She looks pretty tasty in that pic.

You can do wonders with a computer doctored photo.

Glade it’s been a while since breakfast! Other wise I might have messed my shirt.

Nowak's Lazamataz's car had bondage photos, pills

There.

That's better.

[mbynack]

We used to think the folks in NASA were a bunch of nerds. It turns out that they’re really a bunch of party animals.

[SkyPilot]

She needs to update her hobbies on her resume.

[najida]

HOLY CARP!

Someone tweeze those caterpillars off her forehead!

[johnny7]

“She's a two-face, Jerry... ”

[SkyPilot]

Do you need a spare floppy Laz? I have 5,402 of them sent to me by “America OnLine!”

[null and void]

Yeah, but that’s not news.

[SkyPilot]

How can a photo show a woman nude "sometimes"?

I'm thinking that one through.

[SkyPilot]

Are they ABSOLUTELY SURE she was lusting after Oefelein and not Shipman?

You know, this case could not get any stranger.

One thing that really surprised me was that Oefelein came clean to the investigators, and told them he and Lisa Nowak were lovers. Nowak told the Florida police she was not in a "romantic" relationship with him - probably trying to protect either him or herself with that lie.

Once the investigators from military started to dig deep, Oefelein probably knew he had to tell all.

I heard he is a likable and very decent guy. Too bad for him he got caught up in this mess.

[Lazamataz]

No, but I do have one fairly substantial hard drive.

No floppy. That went away when I got rid of the coke.

In the wizarding world the pictures move...

[sticker]

I couldn’t help myself:

Ground Control to Major Tom
Ground Control to Major Tom
Take your protein pills and put your helmet on

Ground Control to Major Tom
Commencing countdown, engines on
Check ignition and may God’s love be with you

(spoken)
Ten, Nine, Eight, Seven, Six, Five, Four, Three, Two, One, Liftoff

This is Ground Control to Major Tom
You’ve really made the grade
And the papers want to know whose shirts you wear
Now it’s time to leave the capsule if you dare

“This is Major Tom to Ground Control
I’m stepping through the door
And I’m floating in a most peculiar way
And the stars look very different today

For here
Am I sitting in a tin can
Far above the world
Planet Earth is blue
And there’s nothing I can do

Though I’m past one hundred thousand miles
I’m feeling very still
And I think my spaceship knows which way to go
Tell my wife I love her very much she knows”

Ground Control to Major Tom
Your circuit’s dead, there’s something wrong
Can you hear me, Major Tom?
Can you hear me, Major Tom?
Can you hear me, Major Tom?
Can you....

“Here am I floating round my tin can
Far above the Moon
Planet Earth is blue
And there’s nothing I can do.”

NASA's new space helmet

[Kirkwood]

I would write a more detailed response, but I’m a little tied up at the moment.

[GoldCountryRedneck]

Bondage photos? Well, afterall, her 'affair' left her fit to be tied ...

[Killborn]

Well, I hope all parties get things straight and NASA doesn’t get burned too much in this whole affair.

Still the FEMALE BONDAGE pictures made me wonder if she was really after the guy.

[hschliemann]

Also found were nearly $600, 41 British pounds and four brown paper towels with 69 orange pills...

Barrel sunshine,no doubt!

[radarfuture]

Oefelein is goofy looking but both women are homely as heck. He sure didn’t do any better with his latest (in the looks department).
