The real answer?
What’s on the table is the capsule suit, not what’s worn outside the capsule. The exit suits are FAR more insulated...had that suit/ those boots been worn outside he would’ve either frozen solid or burnt to a crisp depending on what time it was.
(The temperature varies from nearly minus 300° Fahrenheit during the night to plus 212° when sunlit.)
Now try explaining how a fuel propelled rocket navigates through a vacuum
Also: Rocket fuel contains oxidizers...usually hydrogen peroxide. These, for lack of a better term, create their own oxygen to burn. Same reason that you can shoot Roman candles under water and they still burn.
Yes, underwater rockets exist of course and the type of propellant isn't necessarily relevant to the argument.
It's that in a vacuum, devoid of any matter or molecules, that roman candle has nothing to push against.
It's like falling out of an airplane and trying to swim through the air to get to a lake (sort of a bad example because here we do have air resistance and it would work, but just to illustrate the idea.)
Wrong.
Sorry man, but you are out of your depth on this...inertial thrust doesn’t need an atmosphere.
Newton’s law applies in space as well.
