Just wanted to clarify: Here "space" means merely 300km above earth's surface and not thousands or millions.
Even 300km is very difficult to survive (space station's zero gravity, etc.)
Not to be ageist but is this not a slight risk from using astronauts who are older in age due to their important experience. It does feel as if we need to find a route to fast track at least some of the crew if we are to expand a program to far more expeditions.
