*Thanks for watching, nerds!* Here's some of the math I promised: www.projectrho.com/public_html/rocket/lifesupport.php#iandecompress2
I'd like to see what effect the escaping air would have on the opening blast door itself. After all it would have all that air in front of it, and a massive surface area compared to a person.
That's why I'd think a space airlock would function more like a underwater airlock. The doors would only open after the chamber slowly matched pressure equilibrium, rather then just popping open.
I ain’t a nerd but lemme see that math
Kyle is S.U.S
question, but in a zero g enviroment wouldn't it be easy to be pushed out of the ship even by a little bit of air if you aren't grabbing something to stay put?
Hell yeah he finally remembered to pin the analysis.
There are two kinds of people in the world:
1. "We're in space, there's literally nothing out here."
2. "We're in space, literally everything is out here."
You have another who scream of happiness telling "space"
I'm definitely 2
I'm both. Everything's out there and yet theres a lot of nothing between them.
Watch out for Space Snakes.
2. People who have watched that episode of Rick and Morty.
This is like kids learning to not struggle around in quicksand. Helpful to keeping you safe maybe, but it will probably never come up.
As I child, I was SO PREPARED to encounter quicksand...
Quicksand is often exaggerated and not that deep.
Oh come on! Vacuum exposure drill was regular part of elementary school where I grew up. And we needed it too. Saved my life once during that accident when were building that addition to the habitat ring.
If you can swim in water you can swim in quicksand too, also, depending on the water to sand/dirt mix you won’t sink below your shoulders either

There was a scene in The Expanse where some people get spaced, and are suddenly "sucked out" into space. But then they cut to an outside shot that shows the ship was actually firing its thrusters to shake out the corpses. I love their attention to detail
So worst case scenario: Human potato gun.
With a potato gun you can have many many atmospheres of pressure behind the potate. In an airlock you can only have one.
Notice it said 100gs? That would kill the person instantly pretty much.
@@spejic1 well shouldn't you technically be able to pressurize the spaceship to however many atmospheres you would want? Thus making it exactly like a potato gun :P
I'm pretty sure of course that no-one exactly does that though.
@@GameFraek Well you have to over pressurize it, because the silly sods keep pressing themselves against the door!
@@seemlesslies if you were accelerated at that yes, but thats the air that's accelerated to 100gs to my understanding, I'd say you wouldn't be accelerated that quickly.

Riker: "You were right. Somebody blew out the hatch. They were all sucked out into space."
Data: "Correction, sir, that's blown out."
Riker: "Thank you, Data."
Data: "A common mistake, sir."
Literally just watched the episode and then saw your video, so it was fresh in my mind. Great video, I just had to post this correction from Data though.
Funnily enough most of the 'depressurizing' dramatic scenes in Trek aren't airlocks - they're shuttle or cargo bays (or random hatches at the end of hallways that *should* be airlocks, but instead let the *entire ships* atmosphere vent through a 3 meter by 3 meter hatch - which would generate forces that might implode a ship) .
If they're holding onto something at around the 50% mark of the bay, which is often the case because that's the most decorated part of the set, that's probably a hurricane force wind whipping past them - perhaps much stronger.
Data used a contraction... Riker should have called _him_ out :)
@@JMUDoc Good catch, I did not notice that.
@@dr4d1s TV Tropes calls it "Early Installment Weirdness"; he uses another one in _Where No One Has Gone Before_.
"Would an Airlock Really Suck You Into Space?"
No, but it might blow you out into space.
Thank you, Data.
It's going to suck whatever happens.
Which is essentially the same, aka creating a pressure differential.
Also, sucking and blowing bring out the same videos on some websites full of.. research.. science movies
The airlock, it's gone from suck to blow!

Space: it's got literally everything else inside of it.
Depends if you feel comfortable standing on a planetary body and confidently say “I’m in space”. Try it now. Feel weird? If so then you’d probably exclude any planetary bodies. Perhaps you’d exclude planets with atmospheres. Would you still feel weird saying that while standing on Mars? Or, if you could, standing on Jupiter? Or, again, if you could, standing on the sun? How about much smaller bodies like Ceres or Vesta? How small do you go and think of yourself as not in space but on Asteroid XYZ?
@@CarFreeSegnitz I mean, we are all technically still in space, as an extension of whatever celestial body we are on being in space
If Kyle ever got spaced the guardians of the galaxy would rescue him and he’d be alright
I dunno. Those mutineers in Guardians 2 spaced a lot of dudes. The shut off the artificial gravity in the air lock so the escaping air blew them out, even with a tiny air lock.

In a novel I wrote a character in a spacesuit needs to get to a certain place outside the ship very quickly. She has a maneuvering pack on but it's not fast enough to get her where she needs to be in the allotted time. The airlock is fairly small, so she goes in there and has them give it extra pressure before blowing the doors open. This gives her enough speed to reach her destination in time but she has a hard time slowing down afterwards LOL.

@@Supcharged thats your opinion which is fine amd I never watched that channel but I very much enjoy this channel and think its very interesting.
@@boogityhoo7452 Saying that he misses something and that he enjoyed it doesn't mean he doesn't enjoy things now.

What matters is to be positive and to encourage him to continue doing what he does because regardless if he draws on the screen with markers or uses high tech in the facility we will still love and always love Kyle.
@@its_dey_mate you're comment should have been targeted towards the guy who said his other channel was alot more fun. Im so confused about why you're saying this to me .

My theory is he has endless clones of himself and uses a memory transfer device (or maybe even his essence...for unlimited power)

Hmm, I remember on Ceres Station in The Expanse they had the airlock door built into the floor. IE the person was already being accelerated towards the door
That's because in The Expanse Ceres uses spin 'gravity', so you have to go 'down' to leave the station
@@robertwinslade3104
Figured it was something like that. Thanks for confirming!
(I wonder if an asteroid would actually just be torn apart if you spun it like that)
@@johnf7332 it would get torn apart lol
In a series which includes the Protomolecule, spinning up asteroids enough for spin gravity is probably the most unrealistic thing 😅
@@robertwinslade3104
Lmao. Ya, there’s nothing really holding it together except gravity and hope. Spinning it to cancel-out that inwards force should literally cut-off whatever was holding those rocks in place.
@@johnf7332 yeah, Scott Manley did an episode on it. It would be cheaper and easier to build O'Neill cylinders NEXT to Ceres, Eros, etc than to structurally reinforce the asteroid and spin it up.
The Expanse did a lot better in Season 5, where Pallas has a toroidal spinning station next to it, attached to it by a gantry

😂
Thank you for that lol.
Lol someone could make a meme from this
In the series called The Expanse, there’s an episode where someone gets spaced, but they didn’t get sucked out of the airlock, so that’s neat. Makes sense that they’d be super realistic about that, since they’ve been called the series with the most realistic space combat (according the math and whatnot)
Dumbed this way down so there weren’t spoilers, just in case
You forgot to mention "holding on to something" in your tips at the end, because in microgravity even the slightest nudge could leave you slowly drifting out into space! The advice you did give definitely makes sense though, if anyone wants to write a more accurate story involving this trope. But keep in mind that opening an airlock to vacuum typically _does not_ involve all its air rushing out into space in this manner, because an airlock normally gets pumped down to vacuum (recovering that air for later) before the doors _can_ open. Trying to force those doors to slide apart while they're experiencing that much pressure differential could be very difficult, if not _impossible,_ depending on the airlock design (in fact, this may be an intentional safety feature of the design).
Also, even if the design doesn't make it mechanically impossible, airlock controls would most likely be designed to simply _forbid_ opening the outer doors while pressurized, with no easy way to override that. The only thing _more_ restricted would be opening both sets of doors at the same time -- _except_ under the very specific circumstances of _a fire onboard_ the vessel or station which has failed to be extinguished by safer means, and which threatens the survival of the spacecraft! And even then, it would be a lot simpler and safer to use onboard atmospheric regulation equipment to quickly but _gently_ lower the pressure, or if that option is for some reason unavailable, to open only the airlock's inner doors and use the airlock's depressurization mechanism in the same way, to avoid the risk of causing further damage from an explosive decompression.
If I ever go to space, I have decided I want you designing my spacecraft, man that’s NASA levels of safety thought I love it :)
I've recently watched Gravity and man, being left out in space with limited O2 is a scary death to experience.
Like I prefer swift death death than slowly suffering through suffocation.
Gravity got so many things wrong
But say that you were floating away from the station and had no propulsion
You can probably survive just fine for several days before your lithium hydroxide tank saturates with co2
Then you hallucinate and die
Or just accept your demise try to radio your last words and open the purge valve
If you vent your suit to space, you lose consciousness rather quickly. That was the suicide plan if any Astronauts got stranded on the moon during the Apollo missions.

@@BaronVonQuiply They were also given cyanide capsules.
Movie sent my anxiety through the roof.
My mind playing tricks on me: I read the title as "Can You Survive an Open Adlock?". An Adblock lol
Lol
the ads definitely can't
"Breathing out so my lungs don't explode"
Yeet
@Brooke B I believe it would be almost instant
The expanse has a really good representation. In zero g, a room full of people is exposed to space. The people in the room quickly asphyxiate and drift very slowly towards the open hatch. They suddenly accelerate and it's not until you see an external shot that you see why. The spacecraft engages lateral thrusters briefly to move itself away from the dead people. It then engages its main thruster and moves away. Very good.
Which leads me to ask this question: who would have a better chance of surviving a suit failure- an astronaut or a deep sea diver?
Definitely the astronaut. If you were in a deep sea divin suit like the old timey diving bell suits and your air supply from above suffered a failure, the water pressure around you would no longer be repelled by the air pressure supplied to your suit from above and the water pressure would squeeze your guts into your helmet through your mouth.
Pressure differential. In space the greatest differential you’re potentially going to face is 1 atmosphere, the difference between the inside of your suit or spacecraft and the outside vacuum. The deep-sea diver will face multiple atmospheres of pressure differential depending on depth. Every 7 feet of depth adds 1 atmosphere of pressure. The deepest point, Challenger Deep, at 36,200 feet, is a little over 5,000 atmospheres. If a submariner’s vessel failed at 5,000 atmospheres it would be like every part of the person’s body got run over by a truck all at once. Very, very not survivable.
@@CarFreeSegnitz would the guts come out of your mouth though?
The body isn’t an empty cavity.
We are also mainly liquid.
The guts aren’t moving from an area of high pressure to low, the pressure in your throat would be the same as the pressure on your abdomen ? 🤷🏽♂️
@@sebastianedwards4668 yes. Check out the mythbusters episode on it
@@Excludos seen it. The dummy they used was hardly representative of a real human. And I’m talking in the context as if they’re in a pod that floods. Not a suit. In the mythbusters episode the diver has oxygen in the helmet still meaning the pressure is lower and the guts are pushed into this. If the water pressure is even over the whole body. The organs would not be forced out of the mouth... which is what I have been saying.
So does this mean that as usual the way The Expanse shows "spacing" someone (when that belter ship spaced the inners for an example) is once again scientifically correct as per usual?
P.s. I agree with the Netflix sentiment they need to shuuuuuush with the ads haha
You will find most things shown in the expanse are realisticly depicted ;)
@@failandia Oh so true hahaha just wanted to draw more attention to how epic the science is in that show :D
@@MrJohnn100 My brain went to the Naomi scene.

That is the best transition to an ad/sponsorship I've seen, ever.
I need to watch more of your space videos. I'm working on a book set in space, and I'm trying to make it as realistic as possible. This is a perfect video, too, since there is an almost 100% chance of an airlock being used maliciously somewhere in it.

16 minutes after uploading, Kyle has not yet pinned the full analysis
Still hasn't.
@@HOTD108_ your username got me there for a second
"and stuff..." The best description of space ever...
I love how in the expanse, you can plug a hole in the ship with a binder cover. Remember 1 atmosphere is only 14psi. Not a huge pressure vessel. So the aperture your air is escaping also matters. A slow door will just kill you by the vacuum by the time it’s open enough to get your body out. Another issue is going to be if there is “gravity” in the airlock. If it’s in 0g then it won’t take much to push you out the door. But if you have 1g of artificial gravity then the math gets really funky. I wonder if Kyle included gravity in his equations.
8:49 that's one of the reasons why I loved Titan A.E. as a kid, it didn't treat you like "just a kid", it showed fleeing refugee ships being blown up, the Earth being destroyed, the notion that holding your breath was the wrong choice in space and so much more that would get censored in other animated movies.

@Chris Young Trust me, I did more than fart the first time I went out an airlock.
@Chris Young" fartin' through space ain't like dusting crops.... " ..... you know the rest .......😄
I’d love to see an episode on the zero g assassination from Star Trek VI; if the phasers impart enough force to flip the targets, why don’t the shooty boys get bent backwards from an opposite force? If transporters can take airborne blood, does that mix with the deconstructed DNA of the person? What happens if you transport with toxic gas?
Phaser hit does evaporate some of target's matter, that may create force to flip targets without making recoil. Transporter is quite all-mighty thing in the Star Trek, it has kind of filters to remove all dangerous substances if activated (it analyzes every bit of transported things if have enough time). And doesn't recombine DNA as it knows position of every particle in the beamed object.
Is it just me or does the "Don't worry about it", followed by instructions on how to survive make you think this is how Kyle preps his minions for Pop Quizzes.
Dude that noise you made when you got sucked out of air lock made the whole room of people I had watch this crack up. Thank you so much Kyle!
Anybody else as excited for season 6 of The Expanse as me? The waiting is killing me.
I think the only time there'd be "wind" from an open airlock might be if the airlock door is OPEN and all the air inside the ship, through the halls, and any open door. How long would it take an entire space SHIP with mazes of passages and halls to decompress? That would be a fun math problem to solve :)
Curiosity box is great! I have been subscribed for a couple years now. I love all of the things that come inside. Learning is fun. My Inq sits on my nixie tube clock and makes me smile.
Something that has always bothered me about this trope is the direction the person appears to be shunted out is always straight backwards relative to the camera.
In a situation in which you can in fact toss something out an airlock into the cold, dark, unforgiving vacuum of space, you would almost certainly be creating artificial gravity, either by accelerating in a constant direction, or by being on a spinning disk to generate 'apparent gravity'.
If your apparent gravity is coming from constant acceleration and the person is standing such that they are in parallel with the bay door opening then as you accelerate away they would appear to you to be flying out sideways as the left the airlock.
If you were on a spinning disk then the airlock would probably be in the floor from the reference frame of a person inside the disk so you don't have to fight against your artificial gravity to toss things out, and so that you don't hit a part of your craft with the debris you've just created, but the person would still appear as if they were leaving the airlock sideways.
In either case, to get a person to look like they are flying straight out the bay doors backwards relative to the person tossing them out the airlock. They should have their feet in parallel with the bay door opening. That is to say they should be standing on top of the bay doors not having them behind their back as is often depicted.
"The great empty" has to be the best nickname for space i have ever heard
Would wedging one's self into a corner, adjacent to the airlock, also be a good place to stand? Also, not sure about the Netflix issue. Mine just goes from one episode to the next. Amazon Prime on the other hand, not so much.
You would still tie tho
This is why I appreciated the 2005 version of H2G2 when the Vogons throw Ford and Arthur off the ship. They look at the back wall and fwoop... Floor opens.
I've needed this episode so *BADLY* THANK YOU!
The outcome is somewhere between simply dying to vacuum and getting extruded into minced meat through the not yet fully opened airlock
So, if it's moving at Mach 1, you're telling me I can't make my Alien hybrid clone child get sucked out of a quarter sized hole in my ship as it screams in agony and gets turned into guts spaghetti?
Still makes me laugh uncontrollably while it’s thrashing around
I was just thinking about that only watched that movie a week ago and thought how unrealistic it seemed
Good topic. I spent some time reading about the effects of space on the exposed human body (for science fiction purposes) but I never actually questioned the sucked-out-of-airlock trope. What I did learn in my own reading was how surprisingly survivable the vacuum of space is. That might make a good topic for a follow up this video.
Thanks for the confirmation. I just recently wrote a story with an airlock evacuation and it wasn't too easy to find a clear answer but it's nice to see I was right.
Kyle Hill is the new Mr. Wizard. Excellent content. Thanks Kyle, for making learning fun....
It's not just "flinging out", I remember seeing a movie long time ago (maybe "Alien-related") where a small hole in the wall pulled the alien monster so fast that when he got stock on the wall, all of his inner organs started getting sucked out of his back until his body fully shrink and then was completely pulled inside the small hole out into space. lol
Alien: Resurrection, or as I like to call it [redacted].
@@Gothic_Analogue Oh yeah I just looked it up and there was a clip of it called "Alien Ejection"! Thanks for pointing that out! :]
No, it was a crab in a video about Delta P.
I'm surprised you didn't comment on how it's depicted on The Expanse. I remember seeing a spacing on the show after your video on pressure differential after a hull breach and was like "Oh. Yeah that's probably more like how it would actually happen."
Thank you for answering my question!
Last night i watched The Expanse for the first time. Theres a bit in an episode where a group of characters experience not one, but two hull breaches from a torpedo. And...they just floated there..sure, they had to shout to be heard over the rushing air but..they weren't sucked out.
Being a scifi fan i was confused. Alien being the first movie to show me that explosion decompression is...viceral and rapid
I haven’t been here this early since Kyle was with Because Stuff...
So you're saying event horizon did this the most accurately in cinema? That movie is amazing
Thank you.
That, or Titan AE
And on the small screen, The Expanse of course
First thing I thought of was the scene in "Guardians of the Galaxy Vol2" where Tazerface has having members of the crew still loyal to Yondu spaced. They showed one being spaced and he basically just drifted out of the airlock. I need to see that scene again because I think the outer airlock door will have a lot to do with the guy just drifting out. Him wearing a trench coat, turning off the Artificial Gravity in the Airlock at the same time, will also play a role.
Star Wars battlefront 2 actually shows an accurate depiction of this science at work. Iden actually steps back from the door to the airlock and stands in front of the door leading to space before it opens. Fun!
I could whole sale accept you being a part of the vsauce group

Hey Kyle, can you breakdown a couple examples like from Guardians of the Galaxy 2 vs The Expanse?

"... To the execution dock..."
"Tilly go, tilly go.. "
If it didn't automatically repressurize at least whoever is in the airlock would die anyways from the vacuum of space.
Agreed - we aren't discussing how long you can survive in a vacuum - just whether your body is lifted from the ground while you try to hold onto something (while not being sandblasted by small particulate matter moving past you) as a huge wind tries to pull you into space. If it's just the airlock and not an entire ship being vented, standing further away from the opening makes a massive distance on the force.
You should have mentioned "The Byford Dolphin Diving Bell Accident" gruesome stuff :(
True. Pressure difference was way greater.
@@jinksomiabodyart3189 yeah decompressing from 9 atmospheres down to 1 😱
Oh jeez is that the one where one of the guys got sucked thru a little tube and got his insides spewed all over?
Whats interesting, is that everything you covered, was put in detail in Event Horizon, when Justin throws himself out of the airlock. Miller tried to explain to him what you said was the best chance for survival. Rather than being flung out, he mostly listed out simply because of the zero gravity
Hey Kyle, have you ever watched Event horizon? well, the scene where the kid locks himself in the airlock and gets launched out, Laurence Fishborne's character mentioned everything you said about putting yourself into a ball, exhaling the air in your lungs and to cover your ears and eyes. always thought that scene was... chilling to say the least. Love your work Kyle.
I'd think so considering airlock accidents have killed people on earth
He didn't remember to pin the full analysis.
There now
@@Seirin-Blu he actually remembered finally!
Wow this was great I never would have thought of all this! Thanks for giving me tips on how to maximize my survival of the empty void of space!
Depends upon whether it is pressure equalized before opening or if it is a violent decompression event. While the latter can send untethered objects into the void the former is like opening a door at sea level.
No matter what Discount Thor will tell you, the answer is: if the pressure differential is high enough and the hole big enough: yes you can be blown out.
Ngl I thought this was going to be a Among Us video
The high delta P method for ejecting material reminds me of how some supersonic wind tunnels are run. If you don't need to maintain a supersonic flow for more than say 10 or 20 seconds to get the data you need having a giant bank of compressed air that is channeled so as to create a laminar flow works great, just be sure all your data recording is working BEFORE activating the wind tunnel, they can take tens of minutes to a few hours to recharge the air bank for the next shot.
I remember when Kyle used to just teach with the clear bored drawings and I like how much it's progressed
After all the time watching Kyle I’ve only just noticed the tell tale remainder of an eyebrow piercing 😂
I would have to assume larger people appreciate you using the "less aerodynamic" label over many of its counterparts. What a gentleman.
Thank you so much, was wondering about this for a while, but I couldnt find anything on it for some reason
Oh man Kyle throwing shade today
So many good puns and moments. Educational and fun
