1. GENERAL PROBLEMS
Geological activity (quakes)
Volcanic eruptions
Strong winds
Fine dust- gets stuck in equipment, wears away clothing and equipment
Atmospheric pressure differences
Gravity (e.g. jupiter) too high: difficult to move, too low, health
problems, or absence (on a comet/asteroid)
Toxic outside gases- leaking in if the door of a compound is broken
Spaceship supply cut off for long- need to have meaningful reserves
Any part breaking- e.g. orbital launch pad
Communication cut off
General cosmic radiation
Member of crew getting lost on the planet
Temperature- too high, too cold, or too varied
Long days and nights- affects solar panels
Low visible light- psychological
Food supplies contaminated
Epidemic spread
Sun gets in between destination and Earth- communication temporarily
cut off
