Zeezeebaba Posted November 2, 2014 Share Posted November 2, 2014 If you went out into space, you would explode before you suffocated because there's no air pressure. That's really set my mind at ease, thanks Will This quote isn't quite true, the human body can last up to 30 seconds before catastrophic damage occurs. This is dependant on "not" holding your breath, there have been several accidents and also animal experiments during NASA research. Anything over 2 minutes in space is fatal however but it's a myth that you explode like a popped balloon.Swelling would occur but the skin sack is more durable than you realise, the first physical indication of impending death is the saliva boiling off the tongue.

KyleR Posted November 2, 2014 Share Posted November 2, 2014 A Supernova within 100 light years of Earth would cause a mass extinction event. Luckily the nearest Supernova candidate is 150 light years away. This one seemed a bit off with me, so after a little research I found that at 33 light years it can cause quite a bit of damage to the Ozone but isn't cataclysmic until it's a bit closer.

This one seemed a bit off with me, so after a little research I found that at 33 light years it can cause quite a bit of damage to the Ozone but isn't cataclysmic until it's a bit closer. My source was Universe Today. http://www.universetoday.com/49401/could-a-faraway-supernova-threaten-earth/ Sion concluded the presentation with the statement (shown here on his last powerpoint slide) that “A Type Ia supernova exploding within 1000 parsecs of Earth will greatly affect our planet†A supernova within 100 light-years of the Earth would likely be a catastrophic event for our planet, but something as far out as T Pyxidis may or may not damage the Earth. One of the journalists in attendance pointed out this possibility during the questions session and Sion said that the main danger lies in the amount of X-rays and gamma rays that stream from such an event, which could destroy the protective ozone layer of the Earth and leave the planet vulnerable to the ultraviolet light streaming from the Sun.
