  Thanks, I thought it was an unusual colloquialism for "couple of"

  I find it funny that someone wrote bulletproof in the specifications of the windows. Is the bulletproof term used in the space industry?
  • erik_seaberg 5y ago
    The funny part is that what they actually need is much stronger than merely "bulletproof," if only it had been invented.

      "spaceproof" would sound much cooler, to be honest.
      • nix23 5y ago
        "Earthlings thrash proof" would be more accurate.

        Meteorite proof?
        • treeman79 5y ago
          Bullet proof is a little open ended for a spec. Meteor may be a tad vague. “What do you mean it’s not Chicxulub proof?”

        I think the closest would be "hypervelocity-impact resistant".
