He's not even got to the bad parts yet. Vincent Kapoor:
Well, let's get to the bad parts. Bruce Ng:
We need to remove The nose LR, the windows, and the whole of panel 19. Vincent Kapoor:
You want to take the front of the ship off? Bruce Ng:
Sure. The nose alone is four hundred kilograms. Vincent Kapoor:
You want to send a man into space without the front of his ship? Bruce Ng:
Well, no. We are going to have him cover it with HAB canvas. The hull is mostly there to keep air in. Mars' atmosphere is so thin, you do not need a lot of streamlining. By the time the ship is going fast enough for air resistance to matter, it'll be high enough that there will be practically no air. Vincent Kapoor:
You want to send him into space under a tarp? Bruce Ng:
Yes. Can I go on? Vincent Kapoor:
[exasperated]
NO!
