 Posted on: Mon May 23, 2005 1:54 pmThat was precisely what I was asking for. Thanks. It certainly does make an important point. Dagnabit.
Ok, ok ... so I agree that its possible for EM communication foul-ups could precipitate a SNAFU that couldn't happen with a human holding the screwdriver. As far as the suit is concerned I'll buy that all it will take is n years of technological advancement. Where n = any number you care to think of. DKH _________________ Per aspera ad astra |

Posted on: Mon May 23, 2005 2:00 pm There has been an article about spacesuits at Space.Com one day this year. It is very interesting and considers four different designs.
As far as I remember one similar to that you described here is included. Dipl.-Volkswirt (bdvb) Augustin (Political Economist) |
