Well no, it's down right dangerous is what it is.
Side note: any chance I get to use the term willy nilly I always change it to willy Nelson. It makes me smile.

Boinking willy nilly would be like a game of pong.

With or without the annoying beeps?

You'd have to craft some kind of grounding device. Perhaps a bar secured at either end that you can hang onto.
A.......... Boink Bar

That would depend on one's fetish, I suppose.

Yes, that could also be used for relaunch.
Man, with all these ideas, we could submit our plans to NASA for the first boink module.

I'd love to see the pitch for the boink bar.

I don't know about a device, but that's a awesome name for a bar!!!
Quote:Mars in three days? NASA touts new propulsion system
With all the talk of one day launching a human mission to Mars, it still would take upwards of six months to reach the Red Planet.
But NASA researchers are working on new laser technology that could allow a craft to reach Mars in as little as three days. Known as photonic propulsion, the system would works by using lasers to propel a giant sail. Rather than photons from the Sun’s rays, the system would get a boost from Earth-based lasers, according to ScienceAlert.

I think they call that something else...and it has a club you join too!
I fear that the private sectors race to space tourism will end in a lot of casualties initially. Hopefully private space flight is a real thing during my children's lifetimes.

Only if you're the one flying the plane.

Watching the Apollo mission documentary today, I was reminded that beating Russia to the moon was the motivation behind getting there.
Without private sector competition, there would be no progress on this as well, unfortunately.
Perhaps China or Russia will step in again, and our leadership doesn't allow them to be first this time? This will be interesting to watch.
Something I'd either forgotten or did not know... because of the pace of the race, when we launched men for the moon, it was the first time the USA had launched humans on that platform of craft.
Amazing. Not only that it was greenlit to begin with, but that overall it was a success as well.
