Poll: What do you fear most about traveling into space?

1 points by washedup 12y ago ↗ HN

I am doing research on perceived fears of traveling into space. I figured this might be a great place to do a survey to get me started, and also discuss the many potential threats. Most likely none of us have been in orbit, but I am wondering what aspects of the hazardous environment people tend to worry about.

I fear about classism developing due to living in different gravitational conditions. Somebody born and raised on Mars, or the Moon likely will never be able to travel to Earth. In fact within a generation it'll be completely obvious how more physical capable a just immigrated Terran will be over a native Martian.
