so me and my brother were talking today...

[saywhat? 5,000+ posts]

and we were talking about the space station and crap up in space, and how they seem to think we can sooner or later live on Mars. Then it got turned into this "a lot of people don't come back from space, and know ahead of time." So we were saying what we would do if we came to find out there was NO POSSIBLE WAY to live through the trip. Let's say 72 hours.

We were also wondering what happens to bodies in space, if someone dies outside of the shuttle. Surely it's happened before. Do they decompose like someone on earth?

Anyways, we figured that, one way or another, we would probably just jump out of the shuttle and float off into space with a bad *** story to tell. Probably to noone....but who knows. I would honestly probably get completely **** and start acting like I was swimming. I just find that it would be quite the odd view for those that stayed on the ship in hope to live. Only to die a shitty death with the others, in a rocket ship/space shuttle. I would rather float around seeing some crazy shit out there.

Probably get flamed, but ohwell. It was funny to talk about.

Anyone else? What would you do?

Well considering space is a vacuum you would explode (not like a bomb). The pressure of gravity pushing on our bodies has to be equaled (so out bodies push out that same amount of force that gravity pushes on us) In space there would be no force pushing on your body. This would cause your body to explode. I might be wrong on this but it makes since to me.

Second you wouldn't decompose in space. What cause decomposition is other living things (bacterial etc...) eating your body. There probably aren't many living creatures in space so your body should be pretty well preserved.

I not real sure on the first part but I'm confident the part about decomposing is correct. Trying to remember back when we talked about this in school,

You wouldn't be swimming/seeing anything for too long the vacuum in space would render you unconscious seconds and kill you shortly after. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/wink.gif.608e3ea05f1a9f98611af0861652f8fb.gif

You do not explode and your blood does not boil because of the containing effect of your skin and circulatory system. You do not instantly freeze because, although the space environment is typically very cold, heat does not transfer away from a body quickly. Loss of consciousness occurs only after the body has depleted the supply of oxygen in the blood. If your skin is exposed to direct sunlight without any protection from its intense ultraviolet radiation, you can get a very bad sunburn.
