Question+1

Why can't we breathe in space?

====You may get a little bit of air...then the pressure inside of the bottle goes down and you can't get any more air into your lungs. The pressure inside of the bottle is less than the normal 14 PSI at the surface of the Earth. In space, it is almost a pure vacuum or Zero PSI...so there is nothing to inhale...in fact, the air inside of your lungs will try to rush out and equalize with the pressure of outer space = Zero.====

====This discussion totally ignores the fact that the temperatures in outer space are roughly 3 degrees Kelvin which if my math is right is roughly Minus 376 Degrees F. So in outer space you would freeze pretty fast while trying to breathe...sort of like a flash freeze. Attempts at breathing would make your body explode outward from every available orifice...eyes, ears, nose, mouth, etc., etc., due to the necessity of pressure equalization. - Tess====
