Odd factoids

Bubbles float to the bottom then?

On that subject (from when I used to do a lot of scuba diving).
In very dark or extremely bright light (with the light reflecting off white sand) it is possible to get disorentated and not know which is up or down. To reajust a diver checks which way his air bubbles are going..... they would obviously be going up.

Reminds me of the worker who drowned in a vat of Guinness,

He got out 3 times for a pee though.

He got out 3 times for a pee though.

2 of his colleagues dived in to save him. But he fought them off bravely...

They can do depending on what substances have been mixed.

In space there is no bottom

Not many bubbles either.

Not many bubbles either.

Plenty of bubbles you clearly have not watched the ISS videos

In space there is no bottom

There is no up or down either - so how do we know which way bubbles would go? They might even go sideways... or go nowhere at all...

So, if spacemen have no bottoms how do they errh uhmm do thingies

All bottom burps outside the Earth's atmosphere are silent - in space no-one can hear you fart.

 

[Ming the Merciless]

In early space walks Spacemen used to fart to steer themselves round their space ships.

 

[Kempstonian]

Space walks aren't walks at all. They should be called space floats.
