I was wondering because of how the ice has cracked up in a glass here before, and I have had a chip fly out before as well. That's why I was wondering about that part.

You are looking for exothermic reaction and I have to ask, where is this energy?Coldness in lack of energy not an excess of such. There fore if the ice acts no differently, then the suspension medium will not react any differently.

Using a sealed ice cube container lets say. So that the water won't boil out,freeze it with that extreme cold there. Now what would happen to water that was frozen that deep of cold. Now once frozen, drop it in say room kallamishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09387052990728026975noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31959155.post-81323652746364073212013-03-04T23:32:44.904-05:002013-03-04T23:32:44.904-05:00No actually that is a very interesting question. ...No actually that is a very interesting question. First is truly understanding the environment that you are "freezing" anything. Space is unique because it is an almost perfect vacuum which resists the transfer of thermal energy. Second there is virtually no pressure on the material to be frozen. Water exposed to space directly boils turning a large percentage of the material Beam Me Uphttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16507215843874160767noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31959155.post-71905788165560756622013-03-04T21:17:15.290-05:002013-03-04T21:17:15.290-05:00This was actually really good.

But this stuff now has a whole better flavor to it. And the texture wasn't like that other stuff as well.

And if any of you haven't... I love that picture. And if any of you haven't tried that Astronaut Ice Cream as it is commonly called, try it. There's a Neapolitan that Mountain House makes, and it is available on Amazon as well, (hell, what isn't now days). I'll put it this way. I don't like Neapolitan. I like that Neapolitan however. I am sure there are quite a few different manufacturers out there, kallamishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09387052990728026975noreply@blogger.com
