This thing with the hatches is going to end SO WRONG and the more he keeps saying "we'll be careful" the bigger I think the mess will be

didn't think of that, it actually makes a lot of sense and I hope it's what happens

I like this story, but something that really irks me is the author's portrayal of space as being "cold". You can't cool a room by exposing it to a vacuum.

The use of 'cold' can get repetitive but it is accurate. Negative 270 deg Celsius. More here http://www.universetoday.com/77070/how-cold-is-space/

Yes but you can't use space for cooling because you can't conduct or convect heat in a vacuum.

u/MoralRelativity [+1] *

Absolutely correct.
