Ewwww...cabbages in space...
SBD: Spaced But Deadly
“I think. Therefore, I stink”.
I wonder what high radiation exposure because of the Van Allen Belts and cosmic radiation beyond smells like? Do you think we know?
Up is where space is, and also where all them farts go.
Probably “Uranus” stinking up the place......I mean what did you expect?
Smell is not a construct in space. What they smell is various chemical interactions with the nitrox they use for air in habitation modules. It’s all just elemental interactions with air. You can’t smell anything in space. There’s no breathable atmosphere. It’s the lack of pressure not the lack of oxygen that would kill you.
Uranus smells strongly of flatulence,
No. Honestly. I’m not making that up. It’s in the article.
Fry: Hey, as long as you don’t make me smell Uranus. (laughs)
Leela: I don’t get it.
Farnsworth: I’m sorry, Fry, but astronomers renamed Uranus in 2620 to end that stupid joke once and for all.
Fry: Oh. What’s it called now?
Farnsworth: Urectum. Here, let me locate it for you.
Fry: Hehe, no, no, I think I’ll just smell around a bit over here.
When submariners spend 3 to 4 months under water breathing charcoal filtered air and the hatch is finally opened to fresh air from the surface, it absolutely stinks…something similar to the smell of a paper mill except more pungent. It takes a few minutes to get used to it. I imagine it to be similar in space.
Cool post! Pretty wild. Something I would have never considered probably in my life time.
Does space smell?
Those aboard the Apollo moon landings described the scent as gunpowder-like, while others who traversed the International Space Station compared the smell to burnt steak.
This was written either by AI, or by a writer who should be out of a job.
I’m just here for the Uranus jokes.
Aliens love charred barbeque. What did you think was happening to all those cow parts?
