That reminds of the pic Collins took of the LEM Ascent module coming up from the moon with a partial earth in the background.

While a great shot all by itself it took on a more interesting tone when you realized that every human being alive at that point except one was in that picture.

A good power armor and you're good.

If anything happens just pop a radaway. What's the big deal?

Based on what I read in r/astrophotography, the cheapest one that they recommend for the purpose you mentioned is the Orion SkyScanner 100mm.

Why are you fixated on hard vacuum when Hydrogen and Oxygen are readily available

I’m not a cop you don’t need to pretend there’s any non financial relationship between you and her

>Let's pretend you could live forever or not die up there, what would it look like?

Then atoms wouldn't decay, so the universe would have to be immortal aka ∞. Kinda strange but for most of it, it would be empty space. Infact, most nebulae wouldn't even be visible as they are either visible in infrared or are only visible through filters from telescopes with far more resolution/seeing capabilities i.e Hubble. Only some Nebulae like the Tarantula nebula and the Orion and Rosette nebula would even be visible and nebulae are pretty sparse so it would still end up looking like empty space from the inside. You would barely just notice you were inside one. But hey, one quick tour through the galaxy wouldn't be so bad.

His picture of the moon and the earth, with all other humans beings in existence in it, is stunning

And the said truth is that you are part of that virus from Earth headquarters.

And fun fact, for you it would be instantenous. So even FTL is possible, it will be instantenous. But then again this is forever.

Much like my wife tells me, "It's bold that you think I finished at all"

We actually can desalinate ocean water on earth, it’s just expensive currently.

ISRU is NASA's obfuscation of "space mining", because it would confuse congresspeople who come from mining states. Actual mining engerineers just call it space mining.

Off topic, I know, but I always thought flag officers were buried with an all-officer color guard.

Stellarium app is pretty useful for getting a bead on it while you're outside. Look for C/2022 E3 ZTF

There's plenty of water already in space. Some nearby asteroid types contain up to 20% water and carbon compounds. The carbon compounds typically have hydrogen, and that can be combined with mineral oxides (most rocks) to make more water.

Beyond the "frost line" in the middle of the asteroid belt, water can survive in a low-g vacuum environment, so there is lots and lots of water as water and ice.

Besides, most rocket launches produce more water than they can carry as payload. They take oxygen from the air and burn it with hydrocarbons. The exhaust is CO2 and water.

He's the most important one in my view. 500 years from now, I'm pretty confident he will be the one remembered the best.

Nah, we sent ghouls into space on a rocket. They can dig for us

OK, what "useful chemical process" makes water out of hard vacuum.

Water, and by consequence ice, is a great radiation shield. You would only need a couple meters of ice between you and space for your radiation intake to be inconsequential.
