Two of them have been.
Wear and Soar I'll give you, but do you seriously think they're all rivers? River Brain? River Valency? Really?
Well...they are. All rivers in England, in fact.
The riverbed is yours...

Ah, pub trivia time, is it...? Quite a few have done 6, so lets go round the horn...

That wasn't the answer I was looking for but after checking I find that my source incorrectly stated that Tessa Sanderson was the only one to achieve that feat, so Bill Hoskyns is correct and it's over to you...

Thank you... I will admit that was just a gut feeling based on a pub quiz I went to nearly three years ago. For the record, the other person was Michael Dixon.

355 people in total flew the space shuttle and, almost all of them used a piece of equipment called the ACM - what was the ACM and how was it used?

Astronaut Catheter Male - used for draining urine, those who didn't use that used the ACF instead.

Close, but no cigar... One word may or may not be barred from the forum by filters, so I will accept a *'d first word

A-hole Cleaning Machine? A sort of space bidet? Possibly vacuum powered?
As you can probably tell, this is just a stab in the dark.

Asshole Containing Module?
It's sort of a space brig/ space naughty step where astronauts are sent when they're being obnoxious.

1st and 3rd words are correct
Think of other words starting with "C"
Explanation is wrong

Asshole Complimenting Module?
It's basically a computer program that boosts astronauts self-esteem by saying things like "nice butt" "I like that wagon you're draggin'" and "I like that junk in your trunk"

Asshole Camera Module?
Used in the same way as a photocopier at the office christmas party.
(That wasn't the first "C" word I thought of)
