This doesn't totally make sense to me. Air is obviously creating pressure on everything, all the time. Say you have a bag that can enclose 10cm3 of air. If the bag is laying flat, there's still that much air above it. The layers on the scale would be scale>layer of plastic>layer of plastic>miles...

I expected the danger to be from radiation (sickness, not burns). Is that not correct, and there's more danger from direct burns to the skin than from radiation damage? Or are they actually the same thing?
