Survival in the vacuum of space

[adamdray]

Apparently, you can escape death with only minor injuries in the vacuum of space, if rescued with pressurized oxygen within 90 seconds after exposure. You fall unconscious after 10 seconds. After 90 seconds, though, your blood starts to boil and your heart stops and that's bad.

Please LJ-cut your ecological footprint post, as it wreaks havoc on our friends' pages. Also, where do you calculate it?
