I might be able to accommodate you.

There will possibly be a need for "scoop-ship" pilots, who will fly from Mars orbit into the atmosphere to gather Carbon Dioxide for use as rocket propellant.

We have not been able to calculate how risky this may be. We do not consider it suicidal, but it could possibly be chancy.

If you'd care to volunteer for this perhaps hazardous duty, I'm sure that will go a long way toward meeting both of your goals.

It's pressure is dropping. Nurse, the big text--it's all we've got!

Check!
