Nothing strikes fear into the heart of the misinformed quite like a reasonable comparison of radiation exposure! Left astronaut tries to calm fears with actual science, showing EPA water safety limits are equivalent to background radiation from a cross-country flight. Right astronaut? Pure radiation panic merchant with a gun, because heaven forbid we use facts to diminish a perfectly good hysteria. The eternal battle between scientific literacy and "but radiation sounds scary!" continues unabated in the vacuum of space... and public discourse.
