Ever wondered what would happen to your body in space?

This activity from the Science Museum will give you some idea. It shows how a marshmallow expands dramatically when normal atmospheric pressure is reduced; it’s hard to imagine a human body in its place.

Learning Outcomes:

- Investigate how materials behave when atmospheric pressure is changed
- Use observation and questioning (curiosity) skills
- See how forces and atmospheric pressure have useful and relevant applications in our everyday lives

Curriculum Links:
