I had no idea you thought about "humans in space" that way, Slowmo.

>>>Unlike a submarine, which needs thick sealed pressurized steel to keep from imploding, anything in space needs the equal and opposite force to keep from exploding, in other words, a spacesuit could never stop the effects of vacuum.

There's a mirror on the moon that is used to measure
the distance to the moon, everyday, using a laser pulse.
The astronauts placed it there on one of the Apollo missions.
If our astronauts didn't place it there, who did?
