Safety and Autonomy: Spacecoaches, because of the abundance of water and consumables on board, and the absence of high thrust rockets with catastrophic failure modes, will be inherently safer and should also provide a high degree of autonomy compared to conventional spacecraft and mission architectures. This chapter explores the safety features that can be incorporated into these ships to make them safer, more durable, and more field serviceable.
