Thanks 6/3, hopefully this link works! I checked it and it appears to be good.

O.k. i checked it out gy2020 and that was interesting. I always thought that they had already solved that problem with the Apollo Astronauts as i didn't realise that would still be a problem for future astronauts to Mars so i learned something new as i always enjoy learning about the different sciences .

Here's ya 4 rep points from me about an interesting story.

I think astronauts in the space station need more protection. Possibly some of their equipment does, too.

I'm lost. What is the connection between the subject of the OP and the link that works in the later post? I seem to be missing the propulsion system somehow.
