Emails from the worldwide publicized love triangle among three NASA astronauts - and ended in an arrest for attempted kidnapping - have been revealed.

The emails were leaked from the state attorney's office in Fort Lauderdale, Florida, which has jurisdiction over the bizarre events little over a month ago when former NASA astronaut Lisa Nowak somehow saw the emails and drove nearly 1,000 miles in diapers to and attacked Colleen Shipman with pepper spray in Orlando, Florida.

In building a case against Lisa Nowak for attempted kidnapping, the state attorney's office subpoenaed emails sent among the three astronauts.

The content of the fascinating emails are saucy and provocative. In one email exchange between the target of Nowak's maniac plan, Colleen Shipman writes to Officer William Oefelein on January 8 of this year:

"Lots of love coming your way...and kisses and a great big giant hug with my legs around you."

Oefelein replies sportively but does not acknowledge her racy comment: "Sorry to not be there in person for you now, but I am still with you where it matters."

Shipman replies (edited out extraneous text): "...the thought of you without clothes is pretty nice *sigh* [sic]"

The two correspond back and forth about a charm that is hidden in a picture Oefelein sent her, but Shipman cannot see it after looking at it for a long time.

Shipman sums up her email as follows:

Am only sure of 2 things tonight.

1. I love you and I am head-over-heels IN [sic] love with you.

2. I'd really like a bath today. That might be three things. I miss you.

Oefelein replies with more photographs (with the charm) of him in the Space Shuttle just before "de-orbit" (aka, ascent or return to earth). [Editor's note: Haven't been able to get pictures; working on it.]

"The other was taken just before de-orbit after I had to crawl back into the Ascent/Entry Suit."

Oefelein sent an email to 'Colleen' on January 10, a few days after returning to earth apologizing for not replying to her while orbiting the planet: The subject of the email was "RE: I need a rub down"

"We put away the radar that gave us the ability to receive emails about a day and a half before landing. SO [sic] they saved the one they couldn't uplink in order to give us when we got back.

You write great notes!!

You are the best!! I love you."

In another email, Shipman writes:

"Will have to control myself when I see you, first the urge will be to rip your clothes off, throw you on the ground, and love the hell out of you."

So it's clear by now they NASA astronauts were smitten with one another. Meanwhile, we can reasonably assume, Nowak was aware of their intensifying relationship and allegedly began planning her attack against her love triangle rival.

MTB will publish the entire email contents as soon as we get an OK from a lawyer.

We'll be there to cover what will likely be one of the strangest and most fascinating trials of this century.

NOTE: Recommendation: Don't call your boss a "jackass" (as Shipman did) via email, especially when the email servers are hosted by your employer. Dum, dum, dum, dum...duuummmm.
