Space Rain

Be careful when running errands
With a five year old.
You just might get asked a question like,

Are satellites waterproof?

Were we talking about satellites?
Were we talking about space?
Were we taking about waterproofing?
Or rain damage?
Or flooding?
Was there even a cloud in the sky?

No.

Fine then, genius, just answer the question.
Says the voice in the back of your head.

Well, pal, you know satellites have a lot of expensive
Computers and batteries on board so, of course-

Ahem-the voice interrupts

There is no rain in space.
There is no snow in space.
There is no air to rust things.
No water to flood things.
There is nothing in space.
Why would they need to be waterproof?

So, of course- ummmm
I don't really know if satellites are waterproof, bud.

That's okay.
Do you know what I like?
Steam shovels.
