a little convo me and Dthen had..

**Dthen has BFBC2 says:**
Okay, imagine like… a pool of water or something in space
like, a clear plastic tank
but with no roof
**GriM/Cabora [Brothers] says:**
wtf? xD
**Dthen has BFBC2 says:**
so there's this thing full of water
and then there are fish in it
and they swim
and the water gets pushed behind them
then imagine if one accidentally swam out of the water
it'd be stuck in space
because it couldn't swim back into the tank
it'd just float away.
**GriM/Cabora [Brothers] says:**
xD Epic.
*goes to chit chat borad*
**Dthen has BFBC2 says:**

It IS epic isn't it?

Space = vacuum = no pressure = fish would explode.
And actually: space = vacuum = no matter = fish would suffocate.
That is, if it would even escape from gravity (as you need a force greater than gravity to do that, which can't be formed by a fish).

@Dthen:

> Better yet, imagine a planet comprised solely of water.

Water isn't really able to form magnetism; thus gravity. Even Uranus, which is an ice planet, has a kernel of nickel, iron, etc.

@SHADERS:

> core could be ice 0.o that would hold it together XD

It wouldn't. First problem in space: space = vacuum = no pressure = no temperature = no five phases (Bose-Einsteinscondensate, solid, liquid, gas and plasma) = there could be no ice as every H2O-molecule would end up as plasma.

The second problem is that the kernel can't form gravity as it can't be magnetic.

**tl;dr: lrn2physics, srsly.**
