  It's a good point. Today's Risk Assessments would have stopped the Apollo project in it's tracks. Did you know the skin of the Lunar Module was so thin it was equivalent to three sheets of tin foil? One micro-meteoroid the size of a piece of dust at sufficient velocity could have potentially killed the crew, such a risk would be unthinkable today. It's a pity, but I think Boris is bang on the nose. If any of us ever see a successful manned mission to Mars, we will be so lucky - as a child I always wanted to see it, but alas, I now fear it never will.
