In honor of the release of Gravity, Popular Mechanics posted 10 of the Most Dangerous Space Walks Ever Done. Here are just a three of tidbits…
#10. Hubble Repair: …Had anything gone wrong, the astronauts would have had no refuge or hope of rescue…
#9. Gonna Need a Bigger Door: In the early days of the space race, no one knew for sure what was required for space walks beyond a spacesuit. One thing that’s nice to have: a hatch that’s big enough to accommodate a suit that expands when no longer being squeezed by outside air pressure.

Professor Cox explains how building a time machine to travel to the future is possible here and here.
