Big bang theory

Following on from my earlier comments about blasting into space and the dangers associated with it - I'd mentioned that there were no plans in place for health screens of intending passengers. Seems that might have changed. It appears that women who have had breast implants may be prohibited from doing space flights because of cabin pressure hitches. Spokesman for Virgin Galactic (due to begin flights in 2008) is quoted as saying "We're not sure whether they could stand the trip - they could well explode". That's the theory anyway ... not sure if anyone will want to be the first to test it!
