Ed,
Your comment about that diving from elevated heights "the water
becomes awful hard" stirred a question in me that has been nagging me
for some time.
I have heard jumping into water at 100 feet can result in breaking
your ankles and that at 300 feet the human body reacts to water
the
figure for "normal" interstellar space, outside the
solar system. You just can't get a decent vacuum
anywhere these days.

chonrdules?), and if I remember correctly, about 1
molecule of hydrogen per cubic meter -
