Astronomers’ space suits aren’t for burping. Some may think that an astronaut can burp in space without a problem, But science has revealed why you can’t do that.
A Twitter user who identifies himself as Greg Switzer (@employee) Chris Hadfield, a Canadian astronaut, asked if the statement inside the drink cap was true: “Astronauts can’t even burp in space“.
The best example for scientists is soft drinks. Normally, when we drink carbonated drinks, the carbon dioxide leaves the body in the form of belching and we don’t take in as much gas. however, If an astronaut were to drink soda in space, he would be taking in a lot of carbon dioxide because he can’t escape the liquid easily..
The above can cause a lot of belching, which can be difficult in space. When burps are created in space, they generally are There are some fluids that accompany thembecause liquids and gases are difficult to separate in space.
What does the expert think?
Hadfield, with two space missions in 1995 and 2001 on his resume, says the report from T13confirm the statement on the cover and explain scientifically why astronauts cannot burp in space, coinciding with the scientific theory described above.
The expert wrote:You can’t burp in space Because the air, food, and liquids in your stomach float together like thick bubbles. If you burp, you vomit in your mouth. So guess where the trapped air goes?“.

This also answers why astronauts don’t take soft drinks with them on their space missions, because the gas that forms the bubbles in soft drinks is carbon dioxide.
For a soda to be a soda, these bubbles need to be able to rise to the top of the drink to release carbon dioxide, and for this to work, the force of gravity is needed to pull the bubbles out of the heavy liquid. in the space, Bubbles scatter randomly through the soda, which will likely foam up.
