Gas can exist in a vacuum. There are no perfect vacuums.

after a while the air from the fan will become equal in pressure to its surroundings

oh I thought we were on about why the globe cannot exist

How so?

I agree with your pressure statements tho

but as long as it's being accelerated it can have a pressure differential

You’re talking to a group of globies, strike.

Including the mods.

look guys we can perhaps debate on a more simple level on global science

my favorite topic to go deep into is vacuum but it is very complicated

Do it

U gonna talk about how it breaks the second law of thermodynamics?

you ever seen train cars implode from air being sucked out of em?

Because it doesn’t

It does, so..

In fact, it has nothing to do with the 2nd law of thermodynamics

Here we go.

metallica have you seen train cars imploding?

Uh thankfully no..

Lol

ok great if we havent even gotten to step 1

we cannot properly debate about the earth

not even the moon landing

alright Im just pushing your buttons, im a hungry dude rn

i'm guessing the idea that it'd break the second law of thermodynamics is that it ought to spread out to reach a lower energy state

here lemme post a link what I mean its a 15sec video

though that kinda

doesn't work unless you're ignoring gravity

im not brining in any physical laws

I think some of the confusion with this topic is comparing atmospheric pressure to contained pressure - pressurized gas in a sealed container. Atmospheric pressure is generated by weight. I'd compare it more to the ocean, where pressure increases with depth due to weight.

just gonna go deep into number with pressure differential

or have some reason to believe gravity isn't real

I’ll let strike go on ahead.

@Drewski4343 Be talking to you later. 😎

Looking forward to it, my dude! 😉

over small scales yes, atmospheric pressure will force air into areas of lower pressure. but on a large scale the force of gravity can overcome the force of atmospheric pressure and create compression

alright I'm not gonna go into my whole vacuum schpiel

except basically the strongest vacuum here on EARTH is 10^-6 torr, the chambver requires 10ft of concrete walls to prevent implosion

outer space is 10^-17 torr... thats over 1,000,000x stronger

spacecraft walls are less than 1/2in thick aluminum alloys
