      I never thought about this before. But you could absolutely drown in a huge water bubble surrounding your head in space.

        In space you’ll even die in your sleep because off the bubble of exhaled air/CO2 - ventilation is mandatory, else you gonna suffocate

        It almost happened to someone doing a spacewalk, but thankfully he lived. A coolant line burst or something, and started filling the helmet with water

        Remember in The Little Mermaid when her air bubble kept getting smaller and smaller? That, but in reverse: you have a little bubble of water stuck to your face and you know as soon as you try to breathe, you drown…
