I'd imagine that the suits used in the CEV will need umbilical attachments
to handle just such a contingency. It would be easy enough to provide a
drinking water supply through the umbilical. Since you've got air and
cooling water connections anyway, what's one more connection?


And one back for urine.

Without being stupid, well, as little as possible, is it sometimes
possible to get bare skin, ie your bumcheeks, out in space
unprotected? Somewhere between freezing and boiling, there has to be a
temperate zone right?

Obviously you'd need pressure seals either side.

if love is a drug, then, ideally, it's a healing, healthful drug... it's
kind of like prozac is supposed to work (without the sexual side
effects and long-term damage to the brain and psyche)
