Hmm yes. We don't see much ground transport in B7 do we?

What common accident's could mum's worry about?

Well, now. In no particular order:

Various illnesses, like: Andromeda-strain flu :-) radiation sickness Auron or Fosforon plague Venusian lungworm Casarus swamp fever

Falling into a volcano (yeah, a variation on the old cliff) Being killed by hairy aliens Being turned into spare parts on Chenga Having your blood drunk by a mutoid Having your brain extracted Holing your spacesuit while exploring a black hole Being eaten by giant spiders or snakes Being held for ransom by Amagons (and losing your head) Alien possession Being bent by space-rats Being drugged with pylene-50 Having your spaceship eaten by enzymes Being sold as a white slave on Domo Going out an airlock without a spacesuit Betraying Avon
