If you were to place an animal in the vacuum of space, after only 10 seconds, the water and blood in its body would boil, the saliva in its mouth would vaporize, and this would cause most of animals to die in less than two minutes of being spaced. This happens because there is almost zero pressure in space. And we know that the lower the pressure, the lower the boiling point will be, causing the liquids inside the animal’s body to turn into gas vapors. Obviously, the same thing would happen if you were to place an unprotected human body in space.

We know that a killer whale weights about 10,000 pounds, and we know that a rocket is able to carry over 100,000 pounds of cargo to space. If we were to take a killer whale to space, the whale’s body size would expand up to 3 times its regular size within one minute of exposure to space, just like a balloon being filled with air. This happens because 5 tons of liquid in the whale’s …show more content…
They are short and plump, with four pairs of legs, each with four to eight claws also known as "disks". They are everywhere: from mountain tops to the deep sea and mud volcanoes; from tropical rain forests to the Antarctic. Water bears are one of the most resilient known animals, with individual species able to survive extreme conditions that would be rapidly fatal to nearly all other known life forms, such as exposure to extreme temperatures, extreme pressures, air deprivation, radiation, dehydration, and starvation. Water bears can withstand extremely cold temperatures down to 1 Kelvin or −458 °F, hot temperatures up to 420 Fahrenheit, pressures of about six times greater than those found in the deepest ocean trenches, ionizing radiation at doses hundreds of times higher than the lethal dose for a human, and the vacuum of outer
