What sort of "body" would be able to survive in space?
-
Our bodies cannot survive in space. Actually, we can't survive much higher than 30,000 feet. So what kind of body can exist in space?

Answer:
Carbon-based life forms are at a disadvantage because of the water. Low pressure and temperature of space is bad for water because it expands when it freezes. Isaac Asimov once wrote that the only other basis for organic life is silicon. I do not know if a silicon-based life form would use water as we do or if it would have a moist cellular structure which would be disrupted by freezing. There are of course inorganic life forms but they have no physical body so are outside this question.

The only kind of life that can survive in space is some bacteria for a time. Most life as we know it, however, can't survive even a short time in space for a number of reasons: -radiation -extreme temperatures and pressures -lack of air and/or food
