Belching in the universe - horror stories are more than when astronauts 'come months'

Can you burp in the universe? Yes, but it's terrible.

Menstruation in the universe has always been quite a headache for families. After all, the micro-gravity environment of the universe can bring very strange and unpredictable effects to humans. So from the first days when the female astronauts on duty, people had to send up to 100 tampons for a mission that lasted only 1 week.

But at least over time, the "to the month" story still has methods to handle. Meanwhile, some other phenomena come from the cosmos that your body cannot do very basic things on Earth.

You will not be able to burp normally.

For example, belching. Believe me, you will never want to burp in the universe.

According to Chris Hadfield - the former commander of the International Space Station ISS, the reason is simply because you won't be able to burp normally . "You can't because in the universe, the air, the food, the liquid in the stomach are always bustling and forming a horrible bubble," says Hadfield's snippet of Twitter post.

"Basically when you burp, you push that ball up to your mouth. And where do you think that stuck gas will go?"

Hadfield says air can essentially move from the stomach to the mouth in the universe. But the problem is the gravity story. On Earth, the gas in the stomach will rise up because it is lighter than food and gastric juice. In the universe, everything will tumble into a block.

So if you want to burp, the gas will carry all kinds of miscellaneous things in your stomach. In other words, belching in the universe is no different from a vomit yard.

"When belching in the universe, it's usually a vomit with water and solution in it. It's like a gastric reflux on Earth," said Robert Frost, NASA engineer.

Charles Bourland, NASA's culinary consultant, also agreed in 2011: "A burp in the universe will consist of both liquid and gas, because they do not split like the Earth."

And it is also the most horrifying vomit you have ever seen. Think about what will happen if you burp in an astronaut suit? It is really terrible.

Not just burping .

On Earth, the amount of non-released gas in the stomach will go out of the body through the back gate - farting, bombing or neutrality. But in the universe, even this very basic reaction cannot be done normally.

The reason is because the space in the space station is very narrow, so a deflection is no different from a real bomb: extremely smelly and extremely long. Moreover, the exhaust gas is methane flammable, and they can be dangerous - at least with ancient space technology.

For safe belching, the astronauts leaned against the wall and pushed hard.

So since the 1960s, NASA had to do a lot of experiments to find a diet that helps astronauts . drop bombs less. Grain beans and foods that are easy to cause bloating like cabbage, broccoli . were then removed from the list.

However, they were later added to add enough nutrients to the astronauts. Europe is also because the ventilation system on the ISS is more advanced, so the bomb bit is also smashed faster.

What did astronauts do when they wanted to burp?

Based on experience, astronauts have found a way to limit terrifying burp-ups in the universe. In his book, NASA astronaut Ariel Waldman shared how he used to burp safely. It was leaning against the wall and pushing hard .

"By doing so, you can create a pressure to hold the food and solution back for a brief moment, allowing you a chance to let go".
