Sex in Space, Pt 1 - Action and Reaction Good point, @Oded That is a good point about the thrust, and a very good one about the breathing. Part 2 of this article (written as we speak) deals with some biologic aspects, and I have inserted the breathing in there. I probably should have made a remark about it here, duly noted. However, about the thrust -- it is true that in the article I took some creative approach and exaggerated the effect - odds are, no one will actually "fly off" to the other side of the room. However, there are a few issues that cause thrust from the 'conclusion' to affect movement more than breathing: 1. Breathing is less directional; the air spreads around in all directions, which limits the "net force" on the body. A stream of matter, however, is more directional, and the force is more focused. 2. There is (almost) no friction in a zero-G environment. A small force will result in movement. It might not send you flying in a disastrous speed, but it will definitely cause some movement back. This can be easily calculated if we have all the details. I might actually try to figure out the basic speeds involved in these biological procedures to try and solve the equation for thrust: T=dm/dt * v Regardless of the outcome, this could be a fun exercise to test. Mathematically and practically. smilies/cool.gif

  • Toddler Science?
    Is there any kind of shows, DVDs, Music etc for babies and young children that teach science? There is all sorts of religous propaganda out there for children (Cartoons, Vegie Tales, music etc) so there has got to be something teaching science for youngens. Right?

  • high school biology
    my school allows people to skip a class if they can achieve a passing grade on the finial exam without taking the class. so what would be the best way to prepare for the exam when I haven't taken the class?
