Oh c'mon, this could have been a hilarious event. [spoil?]

This may be my favorite post in the forum, for a number of reasons.

I'm fairly sure that you glossed over Techercizer reminding everyone that this random encounter takes place extremely close to a star. We aren't talking about hard vacuum, microgravity, and general background radiation levels. We are discussing being within range of a star sending solar flares our way every half a minute or so.

Point. I'll give you that, but I don't think 'boiling' would be quite the right term.

In any case it wouldn't be a pleasant way to go.
