Imagine youre in a spacecraft, in space, and the hatch suddenly opens.
You are popped into space and die horribly.

What happened though? Were you sucked out of the craft by the surrounding vacuum?
Were you blown into space by the air pressure that surrounds you?


Id say that you were blown into space, youre part of the atmosphere that youre standing in and its pressure blows outwards into the lower pressure of the outside, but am I right?

TELL ME!

Or Ill suck yo--

erm..

Ill give you a blow jo-..

Damn.


JUST TELL ME!

no contest .... obviously sucked

When you suck a straw the drink in the bottle goes into a lower pressure area (Your gob) but theres equal pressure around the bottle... ?
In space or in a high plane youre in a small area of pressure thats surrounded by lower pressure and thats how explosions work isnt it? High pressure expanding into an area of lower pressure? Being blown outwards...?

nope ..... sucked

It would depend on how much air, or wind, you have in your body. I'd guess you would probably explode. And it would be the end of the universe as we know it.

Me after a madrass, is that.

You're blown out in to space as the air in the space capsule goes in to the vacumn.

Then you explode / freeze after a short period of time. Oh...and if you're in sunlight get a Hell of a sunburn. :)

There was an episode of Battlestar Galactica (new series) and a short story by Arthur C Clarke in which people trapped in an isolated part of a space station were rescued by their colleagues getting a space ship close to the hatch of the cut-off section, opening their airlock, then telling the trapped people to open their airlock. The air rushing out blew them in to the airlock of the rescue craft, and the people suffered from minor frostbite, sunburn, and burst capillaries / eardrums.

Im sure I read a Clarke story when I was a kid about an astronaut with a holed spaceship, the air was rushing out and the only thing he had to block the hole was... his bum.

He contemplated just putting a sheet of metal over the hole- the air pressure would hold it in place, it wouldnt be sucked in place by the vacuum, the inside air pressure of 14lbs per square inch would hold it.

Im sure it was a Clarke story, and I remember reading that the astronaut got a chilled buttock.
He wrote some odd stories at times, didnt he?

I've not encountered that one but there are some oddities in the Clarke Canon!

SPaceships are like submarines in reverse, I guess....

But if you were out past the Van Halen Belt you'd be dead from radiation looong before you could get ejaculated into the void?
