I guess we could skip the duct tape idea if we use superglue around the edges :v:

[QUOTE=MovingSalad;24860451]To be honest, the amount of awe, wonder and satisfaction I'd get from actually being in space is worth my fingernails. Won't they just grow back? Who gives a fuck? How many human beings get to enter space, and leave their small little planet?

Fuck my fingernails, they aren't really necessary. its not like losing a limb or something. I'd say its worth it if I get to go into space. It's such a unique experience.[/QUOTE]

Agreed, losing fingernails isn't that big of a deal.

[DanRatherman]

Wow, someones gotta go back through ALL Science-fiction and edit fingernails out for realism now.

[Micr0]

Maybe this will convince engineers to design better gloves for spacesuits.

[Billiam]

I still wanna' be an astronaut.

[Greenen72]

Who actually keeps long fingernails? I keep mine trimmed to the point where there is rarely any white.

It's happening to both of my little toenails, they seem to grow themselves right out of their slot every month or so and they're denser and stranger looking each time

this reminds me the time my middle finger got stuck in a door when I was young, I was closing it fast THE WRONG WAY (not the handle), then bam, my finger got caught and about 20minutes, my nail completely fell off. It was kind of cool actually, touching that part felt weird.

p.s. I cried gallons.

Looks like you hit the nail on the head.

It's incredible how much work it actually is to move your hand inside of a pressurized glove, even after going through hours of prebreathing so the suit can run at lower than normal pressure.

[FunnyBunny]

Doesn't putting pressure on a finger with no nail on the other side hurt like hell?

You also vomit once you get up into space
