…in what proximity would you have to be to the sun and how fast would you have to be spinning (like a rotisserie chicken) so that your light side didn’t burn and your dark side didn’t freeze; rotating just enough to keep a relatively stable temperature?
Absolutely absurd, I know but this question somehow popped into my head and won’t leave. 😆🐔🔥🧊
What I had in mind was stuff like people getting shot into space in sci-fi, stuff like that. Theyre usually shown to freeze in the matter of seconds. So I guess thats unrealistic, though its a little sad because that means its a much more painful death by suffocation
Yes, that’s correct. Scenes like from Total Recall or Mission to Mars are totally wrong. It will be more like the opposite of drowning but about as bad. I’m trying to remember if The Expanse got it right in the several examples, they usually do pretty good hard science. It may have been a combination, since anyone seeing someone NOT freeze will say it looks fake.
