Once we have cheaper launch methods, I wonder what level of armor would be sufficient to protect against space bullets?
I always thought that the modules are tough enough to withstand those type of impacts. It must have been whizzing along at a great rate of knots.
eek!
KINDA SCAREY REALLY!
As long as there isn't a hole in IIS!

Well, they always knew it was a possibility. Still a scarey thing though!!!!

Perhaps some serious effort needs to be put into "Star trek" type, resonating frequency shields. There must be some economically useful part of the spectrum we can take advantage of....

Yeah Baz, Matter/Anti-matter shielding would be handy, but gotta be careful it doesn't warp the Space-Time continuum! Ya canna change tha laws o physics.

Now they need to create a laser gun to shoot the particles and vaporize them, i'll be in that idea! What a hunt!!!
