Living in space is not easy as living on Earth. In space, astronauts' bodies change. Our lower body and legs carry our weight on earth. Space life is very strange and everyone will be curious to know what happens when a person collapse in space. This situation is very hypothetical as no one has ever collapsed in space. lets see what are the possibilities. The reality is that NASA can not put the collapsed body in a locker as the mental and physical risks would be too much.
NASA
Ages ago, a thought of a man walking on a moon would be a joke for everyone. But then, it has been a enjoyable journey for we humans. Look how far we came in the world of science and technology.
NASA is equally the most outstanding organisation that deals with space and modern technology. There are enormous questions related to it that knocks our heads everyday.
The Questions Raised
One question was running in our mind and bothering us way too much in last a few days. What would NASA do if an astronaut is no more in space?
How will they handle that situation?
After doing some important research, we've found answer of this question and reaching to a conclusion that there are certain factors that have to be kept in mind.
Important Point Of discussion
The situation is very debatable as no one has ever collapse in space. But lets just see what are the possibilities.
NASA can't put the collapsed body in a locker as the mental and physical risks would be too much.
NASA Plan For Collapse Body
A re-built cemetery is out of question it will cost millions of dollars and it is not something in NASA's plans at all in near future.
A guy who is no more and probably most of his body would be destroyed before arriving at the International Space Station.
Cold-heart work
They still release the body directly in space but that is not which you would expect from fellow astronauts as it is very harsh and inhuman.
A fellow astronaut need a strong heart to do this. Even if they were so cold-hearted, they couldn't do it as international space laws orders that no garbage can be dumped as it could crash or interfere with other objects lying in similar orbits.
