VIVA – For astronaut from outer space admitted that he could not burp while there. But the story is different for things related to fart where it’s still easy to do and the smell will last a long time.
British space explorer Tim Peake said the lack of gravity was making the internal gas a catastrophe.
He also ate three puddings to maintain his weight while on the International Space Station or ISS.
“When you eat, your body is still digesting the food and still producing gas. The gas bubbles don’t rise, so there’s only one way for them to get out,” said the former U.S. Army Air Corps officer.
Meanwhile, NASA astronaut Mike Massimino said farts on a spacecraft will keep the smell in place because there is not much airflow. The methane in them can also be a fire hazard, citing the site The SunWednesday, June 29, 2022.
He also revealed his habit of eating pudding. Peake says astronauts are encouraged to keep calories in, “So that’s my favorite food,” he says. On Earth, the smell of farts will disappear in the air around you.
While the airflow in the small, dense cabin of the shuttle is very little, the smell will stay alive like an annoying housemate.
