There are explosions in space. Just not huge continuous explosions. For
example shooting a bullet from a rifle. The bullet itself has an oxidizing
agent giving it enough O2 to cause the explosion to propel the bullet ergo,
explosion
Did you know you cant fly through the stars like hollywood suggests?
*BECAUSE YOU’LL CRASH INTO THEM AND DIE*
Here is something that is not a myth: A tardigrade will survive the vaccuum
of space!
Wouldn’t we kinda explode in space without a suit on? I mean, there is no
pressure holding us together, wouldn’t our atoms disperse? Just looked it
up, we would swell a lot due to the low pressure and our blood would
probably boil.
There is never zero gravity. Its an asymptote
Also, you won’t die immediately if exposed to the vacuum. You’ll stay
conscious for about 15 seconds before all the oxygen is used up in your
blood before passing out, long enough to feel the moisture boiling off your
tongue and eyeballs, and no you won’t explode. Oh, and don’t try and hold
your breath, that will only make your lungs burst.
I already knew all of these myths weren’t true. I bet most people didn’t
people believe several of them.
