"This is Major Tom to ground control"......
Scary as hell if you ask me. Floating around thousands of miles outside of earths orbit? One mix-up and you could be lost in space forever!
Imagine it, your doing a space walk and your teather cord snaps. You hit your pack thrusters but they don't respond.........!!!!!!!!!!!!
You watch your only taxi that’* going home fade away into black! Not a damn thing you can do about it.
You have enough oxygen strapped to you to last a few hours but you KNOW that you’re going to die alone AND very far away from home. Your loved ones are far below you on a beautiful planet that’* called "HOME". But you can't do anything to get home. Your body will never be found, your grave will be outer space.
That’* a scary thought if you ask me. I think those guys and gals have more courage than a soldier fighting in combat.
