Professor Hubert Farnsworth: Good Lord! That's over 5000 atmospheres of pressure!
Fry: How many atmospheres can the ship withstand?
Professor Hubert Farnsworth: Well, it was built for space travel, so anywhere between zero and one.
- whimsy 16y agoSurely exiting a gravity well causes the spacecraft to experience an enormous amount of pressure opposite to the direction of its travel.
- burgerbrain 16y agoMany different forces for sure, but I doubt that acceleration through the atmosphere causes a uniform pressure over the entire craft. In fact, would you get the opposote effect along the sides of the craft, where air is moving fast but parallel to the surface?
