Ah, but it is the one thing that ties them together. NASA has been using sperm whale oil as a lubricant pretty much since day one. Sperm whale oil does not freeze, thus the hint given by Tom about the cold.

The commonality is that they both contain sperm oil, up to now it is the only oil that doesn't freeze in space.
