    I thought this was an interesting article. I wonder who would actually have the gall to try it? Can You Survive in Space Without a Spacesuit?[^] And a NASA Link[^]

      From the nasa link neither of the data points they had were from planned exposure. You have one lab accident, and one loon going for a world record unwilling to back down from a minor problem. The fictional instances I've read have always been after the SHTF in one way or another.

          Q: What do you do if you see a spaceman? A: Park in it, man! Ah... the old ones are still the best! :laugh: I don't know about space, but I'll be jumping (or being pushed, more like...) from 20,000 ft tomorrow with only a bit of nylon to slow my fall... I'm told I will survive... ..it seemed like a good idea a month ago... :~

                Ive always wondered if you went in space without a suit and flatulated, would you turn inside out?

                    I would hope it would not become the "new Xtreme sport" however, accidents and necessity have brought (and will bring again) such events. One of the reasons for experiments in testing exposure to space. What happens if you have to evacuate a station and have no suit and can't get a hard-dock? Movies like 2001 were considered "boring" because they didn't have the "excitement" of movie-made exposive decompression. But the truth is, if necessity calls for it, temporary exposure is survivable and could even be used deliberately in emergency situations.

                      In the beginning there was nothing…then Chuck Norris Roundhouse kicked that nothing in the face and said “Get a job”. That is the story of the universe We live in an expanding universe. All of it is trying to get away from Chuck Norris. Nothing can escape the gravity of a black hole, except for Chuck Norris. Chuck Norris eats black holes. They taste like chicken. Chuck Norris roundhouse kicks don’t really kill people. They wipe out their entire existence from the space-time continuum. Scientists have estimated that the energy given off during the Big Bang is roughly equal to 1CNRhK (Chuck Norris Roundhouse Kick) Scientists believe the world began with the “Big Bang”. Chuck Norris shrugs it off as a “bad case of gas” Human cloning is outlawed because if Chuck Norris were cloned, then it would be possible for a Chuck Norris roundhouse kick to meet another chuck Norris roundhouse kick. Physicists theorize that this contact would end the universe. Chuck Norris’ roundhouse kick is so powerful, it can be seen from outer space by the naked eye. I think Chuck has space covered, along with most of astrophysics...

                          Given the statistics more people die crossing the road than jumping from an aircraft. My view, if the same numbers were involved I'd beg to differ! ;) Good luck with the jump.

                              Nasa is experimenting with a new reusable rocket system propelled by a Chuck Norris standing roundhouse kick. Although a spinning round-house kick was considered, no material known to man can yet survive the power of the kick. The hope of findng such metal could mean that man could reach Mars in days rather than months. The search is on.

                                  Yup, exactly right, stats are just plain misleading all the time. There is also a statistic that older retired people are safer drivers than young people that is often bandied about, but when you factor in miles / km's driven they actually have a far worse driving record than young people who have just got their license.

                                      In the beginning there was nothing…then Chuck Norris Roundhouse kicked that nothing in the face and said “Get a job”. That is the story of the universe We live in an expanding universe. All of it is trying to get away from Chuck Norris. Nothing can escape the gravity of a black hole, except for Chuck Norris. Chuck Norris eats black holes. They taste like chicken. Chuck Norris roundhouse kicks don’t really kill people. They wipe out their entire existence from the space-time continuum. Scientists have estimated that the energy given off during the Big Bang is roughly equal to 1CNRhK (Chuck Norris Roundhouse Kick) Scientists believe the world began with the “Big Bang”. Chuck Norris shrugs it off as a “bad case of gas” Human cloning is outlawed because if Chuck Norris were cloned, then it would be possible for a Chuck Norris roundhouse kick to meet another chuck Norris roundhouse kick. Physicists theorize that this contact would end the universe. Chuck Norris’ roundhouse kick is so powerful, it can be seen from outer space by the naked eye. I think Chuck has space covered, along with most of astrophysics...

                                      :zzz: Can we all just move on to something a little more relevant and current than the tired old CN jokes?

                                        I would hope it would not become the "new Xtreme sport" however, accidents and necessity have brought (and will bring again) such events. One of the reasons for experiments in testing exposure to space. What happens if you have to evacuate a station and have no suit and can't get a hard-dock? Movies like 2001 were considered "boring" because they didn't have the "excitement" of movie-made exposive decompression. But the truth is, if necessity calls for it, temporary exposure is survivable and could even be used deliberately in emergency situations.

                                        Why in the world not? If people are willing to do extreme things I'm perfectly willing to crack a beer and watch them do it. It's a (purportedly) free country you live in after all.

                                          Nasa is experimenting with a new reusable rocket system propelled by a Chuck Norris standing roundhouse kick. Although a spinning round-house kick was considered, no material known to man can yet survive the power of the kick. The hope of findng such metal could mean that man could reach Mars in days rather than months. The search is on.

                                          Is this the successor to the 60's era orion program?
