Just found this in my subs (BBC4 so may be unavailable to non-UK'ers, let me know).
Quoting: Chapman_BaxterThanks, I got it just fine. Very interesting, such a showman, ain't he. Anyway, I couldn't help asking myself just how they knew that the Kevlar material would only support 2 or 3 people for a journey from earth to space without having tried it out already? Formulas and models are one thing, but to think they haven't been testing this out under real conditions already is just a bit naive.
