I have this idea of an environment where astronauts can work
safely. First for ex. repairing a telescope in space, can't
they just contain the whole telescope with an airtight
container, where conditions can be like inside a space shuttle;
temporary life-support environment? Then space suits will not be 
needed as the astronauts will be working inside. What do you think?
