   Either way, weather it damages the engines or just requires re-priming the
   fuel system, ya want to get up there and re-prime the fuel system or repair
   the engines in space before you can return to earth?  I mean, it may be
   bad changing a tire on the interstate during rush hour, but how about
   trying to fuel up and repair a rocket engine in the middle of an asteroid
   shower!
