Imagine: one day you're innocently jetting around, doing space chores, when suddenly a nefarious commissar blasts a hole in your space cone, with Salyut 3 or possibly some kind of curvaceous stabbing implement. The air's leaking out! You're doomed!
Not so. For those brilliant engineers at General Electric have foreseen this very situation. You have the Man Out Of Space Easiest Manned Orbital Operations Safety Equipment (MOOSE) and everything's going to be okay.
Terrifying. Did you read the book Seveneves by Neal Stephenson? Some of the ramshackle spacecraft that man invented for his story made me horrified because of how true it could be. I guess Neil did good research 🤷
oh fantastic it ends with me being a pop tart for sharks, great
assuming I even manage to de-orbit oceanward. 2 out of 3 ain't terrible, but that's still 1 out of 3 where I'm pulverized on impact
That'd have to be some wild insulating foam, and I hope you can line up your deorbit shot to hit a body of water...
Maybe escape pods are still a better idea?
Love the idea of having to climb in a bag and manually de-orbit while my spine is broken!
I'm sure it would be reassuring for someone using something this "exciting" that it has a goofy contrived acronym like MOOSE as a name
MOOSE: It'll kick your back and fracture your spine. Buy one for your space program today!
First: the nose of the man's spacecraft is pierced by debris. This kills the man.
This kills the man.
lol I still love this post. Man Out Of Space Easiest is a much more believable acronym than the actual answer.
thinking over this again, there's zero percent chance this is a better solution than coming up with some way to repair the dang space ferry. sure, it has a hole punched through it, but it's still a lot more structure than turning yourself into a styrofoam pop tart which has already been crumbled inside the bag 5 ways to tuesday
