athenainargyle replied to your post: oh also depending on your time period they wouldn’t be able to watch the cosmonaut, it would all be radio communication once in space
yeah that’s the same time as mine is set in. They can see the cosmonaut before launch on the ground but after that it’s radio communication + vital signs being relayed, if they go on the far side of the earth they have to use basically morse code.
well watching someone’s vital signs slow and stop would be awful XD
