“And no blood in the brain means no oxygen in the brain.” Your brain cells hold a small oxygen reserve that can keep them functioning for about 4 seconds, Fan said. After that reserve is depleted, the brain will “shut down,” causing you to lose consciousness as the boy in the GIF did. This is G-LOC.
Q. Is there G Force in a vacuum?
The g-force acting on an object in any weightless environment such as free-fall in a vacuum is 0 g. The g-force acting on an object under acceleration can be much greater than 1 g, for example, the dragster pictured at top right can exert a horizontal g-force of 5.3 when accelerating.

Q. How many G is 700 mph?
With acceleration at 0.3g, reaching 700 mph may only require 15 kilometers, or around nine miles, of track.
Q. Can you feel gforce in space?
g-force is the result of acceleration of a space craft. If the ship were traveling at a constant velocity, the astronaut would experience no force at all, regardless of how fast the ship is going. Astronauts can feel g-force at any speed, so long as the ship is accelerating.
Q. Is acceleration felt in space?
In both cases there is a gravitational force on the human but this gravitational force causes the human to accelerate. And yes, this is why astronauts feel weightless in orbit even though there is indeed gravity in space.
Q. What does it feel like flying to space?
Some astronauts feel dizzy and have an upset stomach during the first few days of a space flight as they get used to zero gravity. This feeling usually goes away after three or four days. After a few days almost everyone is used to zero gravity and feels great.
Q. Can Thor breathe in space?
By definition, Thor can’t “breathe” in space, as there’s no air there. However, as an Asgardian he can survive a very long time in space, without breathing. He had no trouble breathing while travelling between worlds in Thor 1 and 2. In the comics, though, he can survive space for long periods of time.
