what happens when you get exposed to space (outside earth)???

Answer 1

Er ... you die.
Well - seriously, it depends how long you are exposed for.
I assume you mean *not* in a space-suit, so:

[1] you get a really bad case of the bends. Dissolved gasses in your bloodstream come out of solution, like a bottle of coke fizzing when you open the lid. These bubbles can block your fbloodstream, causing heart attack and stroke. Even if you are lucky enough to avoid that, it is *extremely* painful, as you suffer extreme cramps from oxygen-starved muscle tissue.
Along with this, your eardrums will probably get ruptured by escaping air. Also - your "fizzing" blood will probably burst some of the smaller vessels in your mouth and nose, causing haemorrhaging from your nose, mouth and eyesockets.

[2] you get exposed to a really bad dose of radiation. The atmosphere, and earth's magnetic field protects us from solar radiation. Outside that protection, you'll get a probably deadly dose.

[3] if you are exposed to the sun, you get burnt by its heat. See [2] above.

What does *not* happen is:
[1] you burst. The skin is surprisingly tough, and you won't just pop like a water-balloon. Also - dissolved gasses aside, your blood won't instantly boil. Eventually (after you have frozen - see [2] below) the water in your body will sublimate/evaporate off, but this will take a long time.

[2] you instantly freeze. If you are not exposed to the sun, you *will* begin to freeze, but most heat you lose on earth is by conduction to the surrounding (colder) air. There is no air in space, so you only lose heat by radiation from your body. This takes a long time (think about it: vaccum flasks keep things warm because the vaccum does not conduct heat well - same thing in space).

[3] your eyeballs pop like grapes (bleurgh!) Like your skin, your eyes are quite tough. What might happen is that the blood vessels in your eyes rupture (as an effect of the bends), so your eyesight will be damaged anyway. However - you're going to die a lingering death of radiation poisoning anywway - so who cares?

Answer 2

You mean if your skin got exposed to space? It would depend on where you are in space but lets say just outside of our atmosphere for example. Well space is extremely cold and is also a complete vacuum. This means that not only would your skin freeze very quickly, but your body's internal pressure would inflate your skin like a balloon and would rupture your blood vessels and organs.

Answer 3

An astronaut in space is 350 deg.F. in the sun side and -200 in the shade side . Now what would happen to u and especially with u in a vacuum.

Answer 4

You wouldn't explode per se, I think, but all your bllod vessels would rupture, and any thin membranes (such as in your nose, ears, eyes.

Also the extreme cold would give you almost instant, horrific frostbite. And lack of oxygen would kill you, if you survived all that. Not a pleasant way to go.

Answer 5

I assume you mean without the protection of a spaceship or a space suit. No air, so you'd suffucate. No atmospheric pressure on your body, so, in effect, you'd explode.

Answer 6

The air is immediately sucked out of your lungs. You will die in three seconds.
The absence of air pressure will have all your bodily fluids vaporize.
The solar winds, x-rays, ultraviolet rays, and other radiations that would normaly be blocked by the atmosphere would be so intense you would die from them in a few minutes.

Answer 7

There will be more air inside you then space, air flow out in sec and every cell will become necrotic.

Answer 8

There's no pressure from the atmosphere to hold your body together, so you come apart. Basically, you explode.

Answer 9

You'd die immediately. Since there's no pressure, your body temperature alone would cause your blood to boil instantly.

Answer 10

Ur body depressurizes, so ur lungs explode, your eye balls pop out of their sockets, and your blood boils... all instantly... so i don't think you would feel it for too long... or at all... but it really dosen't look pretty...
