Jun 13, 2021 at 10:40 comment added Dragongeek It's probably a "minimum fitness level" thing. Spaceflight is dangerous and BO doesn't want to deal with extracting someone who can't walk properly from the capsule in case of an emergency. I mean, seven flights is probably only 80 something steps, and if you can't do those in less than 90 seconds, you probably shouldn't be strapping yourself to the tip of a rocket in the first place.
