Could You Make a Space Suit Out of Duct Tape? Wearing a Duct Tape Glove in a Vacuum Chamber!

  • In this video I cut a hole in my vacuum chamber to test out what gloves could be used in space. I put my arm through the hole in the glove to test out several gloves then finally test if a glove strengthened by duct tape could hold in the pressure when in space! Then I test if duct tape could be used to repair a ship in space by taping over the hole I made in the vacuum chamber and seeing if it holds up under full vacuum.

    In terms protecting your body from a vacuum you only need to maintain pressure everywhere on your body. That means your suit doesn't actually need to be air tight (except for your helmet) as long as every part of your body is compressed tightly by the suit.

      A pressurized system can be next to a vacuum if some force is keeping the gas there. Such as gravity, in the case of the Earth. Or a solid barrier strong enough to withstand the pressure, such as a vacuum chamber like the one he is using in this very video. Or a space suit. Or Duct Tape.

    You should have tried to close the hole with the tape from the inside! I think this would be the equivalent of fixing an element from the outside (in the space the vacuum is outside, which would be the box inside). I don't think the "sticky strength" (cohesion?) would make it, in a such big hole. Maybe in the little crack of the helmet yes.
    Anyway great job! :D

  • @phinok.m.628
    @phinok.m.628 6 лет назад +14

    5:05 It's not the same thing... When the glove is sealed around the hole, the inside of the glove is kept at a constant pressure of 1 atm. When the glove is tied closed inside the vacuum chamber the pressure inside the glove decreases the more it expands, it may even decrease to a point where a human wouldn't be able to survive without the glove exploding since the pressure inside the glove would be a lot lower than 1 atm. Especially if the glove is as empty as it was in your case and the glove doesn't resist expansion at all at first, probably 'causing the pressure inside the glove to decrease quite substantially.
    So yeah, that's definitely not an accurate representation of how the glove would actually behave in space or whether it would explode or not.

    • @seanrallis6714
      @seanrallis6714 2 года назад

      Was thinking the same thing. The pressure inside that glove was a fraction of an atmosphere.
      However, it is fascinating to know that simple duct tape could be used to patch a hull breach in a pinch. Hell, slap the duct tape on it temporarily, and just weld a plate over the hole.

      duct tape is pretty amazing, seriously, it's definitely one my list for survival gear, even in freaking outer space.
      heck there might even be a chance you could build both a space suit and a parachute, and if you have enough of it, you could maybe built a big ball so you would not burn up if you come in, in high speed.
      (last one is unlikely, though, but if you can just align yourself with earth speed you can awoud a lot of the heat problems. and just parachute down :P)

You have to pressurize the suit for suitable atmospheric pressure for human survival. Then along with oxygen tanks you use chemical reactions to eliminate the carbon monoxide.

      Not necessarily, the hole was really small and only had a couple fractures, the tape would definitely last as the air from his suit is not really going to push it off as the duct tape and more surface area for it to stock to, therefore, could counteract the force (which would be a very small amount coming through such a small hole) pushing it. But yes, if the hole were to be bigger, it would definitely be forced off and would have need to be on the inside. The film creators probably did a lot of research before hand.

    Space suits are only pressured to at most 5psi. So the gloves would be quite a bit easier to move then your example at half or no atmosphere. You really only need to lower the atmosphere by 5psi to get a good equivalent.
    On top of that, spacesuits are actually built with internal air flaps. Basically, when you move your hands, arms, neck, hip, or legs, these flaps will expand in order to keep the volume of the suit constant. It isn't perfect, but it does significantly improve suit mobility.
    Honestly what we need to work on though, is a hybrid suit. The torso and head should be covered with a hard shell suit, and the arms and legs should be a skin tight suit (applying pressure via the tension in the fabric). This really would be the best suit we could make with today's technology. Air flaps would likely still be required to a smaller degree considering that the body's volume can can change slightly when move joints. These suits would be much quicker to put on as well. Only a few downsides to the skin suits. They usually need to be customized individually to a degree. They offer less protection from micro meteorites. And, they don't completely remove the changing volume problem.
    I do prefer this hybrid suit over any complete hard shell design. Hard shells are great for durability, and are a significant improvement over current suits in mobility. They unfortunately have some draw backs. First is they are cumbersome. They take up a lot of area and are quite heavy. Every pound counts with rockets. Second, every suit requires "programming"to a degree. This is the term for how you have to manipulate certain joints to flex in the way that you want them it. It isn't always straight forward with hard suits. While they would be better than current tech, they still aren't very easy to get into. So really, a hybrid suit is the best of both worlds.

      you can't have a vacuum. with liquid water in there. the water will boil reducing the vacuum . that's why commercial vacuum machines has a freezer unit inside. to lock any moisture in ice. so it can't boil off. causing the pressure to drop! I don't know how much the pressure will rise. or how long it will boil. I guess it would boil until it gets to the vapor pressure of water. or what ever its caused. witch water does evaporate at 14psi. so at zero I guess it will boil and evaporate fast. check out water in a vacuum chamber.

    i am no expert, but you wouldn't have normal atmospheric pressure in a spacesuit, would you? I'd think you'd have a lower pressure(maybe 75% or even less) and a higher oxygen content to get the normal amount of oxygen. makes sense to me anyway.

    • @pietrayday9915
      @pietrayday9915 5 лет назад

      You're pretty close to it: Shuttle-era space suits were pressurized to ~4psi (compared to Earth's ~15psi), and the air mix was heavily loaded with oxygen; shuttle astronauts would have to breath a low-nitrogen mix of air before their space walks to try to void their system of nitrogen to avoid getting "the bends". Next-generation space suits will be pressurized to ~8psi, with a similarly high oxygen mix, and "the bends" should no longer be a concern. Details here:
