I read that article about the space suit the other day. That was... enlightening. Welp, going into space just sounded a bit scarier! Especially the bit about moon dust being so fine and sharp edges and eeeep.

It's exactly why not everyone can be an astronaut, no matter how cool it might be; you really have to understand the risks. I just hope we'll find ways of making space travel safer in the future so that it won't be so risky, though.
