Humans in space are less than children in the park. We've barely ventured out of our own atmosphere. Less than a 1000 people have been to orbit, and only 24 have gone to the moon. Out of those, only a dozen have landed on the moon.

And the moon is still the Earth system - we've never really left our own yard.

unlike the moon ISS is shielded by magnetic field and receives less radiation. It is actually our yard more than a park

You are invited to stretch the analogy as far as you would like in order to win an internet argument. Have a nice day.

Saying astronauts on ISS are children in the park and saying "rescuing a child" from the park is newsworthy headline is the stretch...
