Technically,

 

Jennifer could be an astronaught in space, with a mole on her face drinking a can of red bull while being goosed.

Exactly.  If the question was who went up the hill with Jill to fetch water then OP would probably argue the Steve went on a separate occasion to the more famous time she went with Jack.

Yes, but a captcha should still only have one right answer or permit the correct answers to work. What could happen is a string of such questions and the user is forced into using a different captcha or fedded .  I can see some people going for the first answer that they see is correct and not bother to read the other options. What I am suggesting that could happen is unlikely but still possible.

Captchas like this also assume a modicum of common sense. If you know there is a car in space, you absolutely also know that the captcha is not going to recognise it as an answer in this context.

I would say that the publicity about tesla putting a car in space is enough  of a reason not to look for another captcha answer. Just saying, while it's trivia is still true. The basis of a captcha is that when you answer a question correctly it should be treated as such.
