For anyone who would like to guess, name the person who said this and
name the Apollo mission being referred to:
"...we use a cryogenic bottle...
Again, one of the things you can never test... now is raising the
pressure in that bottle very dramatically, and now we're wondering if
this damned thing's going to explode and what the hell are we going to
do about it. The fortunate thing was that they had designed some
relief valves. They had a pressure disc in there. If the pressure got
so high, it actually blows the disc and the valve, rather than blowing
the bottle up."
Exact quote taken from a NASA SP-series book.
Person Hint: The person was an Apollo Flight Director.
Mission Hint: Subsequent to Apollo 10.
