I do not give a single fecal thought.

If it says “Google”, never touching it.

Do you even know what question you’re responding to anymore? Wtf

I think you are confused about how radiants work on Earth vs Space.

Again, the OP is about water “absorbing” radiation, and then being drinking water. It’s not possible once past a certain amount. This is not possible.

Okay, so where do the neutrons go in your head? Gotta go somewhere.

Re: your point about water in its purest form. It means zero contamination. We aren’t even capable of doing that, and the purest we can make would kill humans pretty quickly for the similar amount we ingest.

Didn’t think I needed to stoop to that level. Thought I was talking to about obvious things and didn’t want to sound patronizing.

Thanks for clearing that up.

You can freeze it before launch, but you’d have to freeze it again before reentry. Not possible, especially if you’re talking about lining a craft with it during months of space travel. Water expands when frozen, and contracts when liquid. Metal does the opposite. How would you engineer that?

The basis for what you’re saying is that water is some kind of magic shield that reflects radiation, which is not a thing.

At best, if you’re talking about lining the hull of a spacecraft and expecting that to work, that’s not a thing either because if the water is taking on any extra mass of any kind, it would obviously expand. Water in its purest form would have to take on mass to “absorb” radiation, expanding a hull and destroying it over time. If you left room in there for expansion, you’d die on exit or reentry of atmosphere without freezing it.

The only way you can reflect radiation without absorbing something is by denying it entry. Water doesn’t do that.

Dude…wut.

Can’t tell if you’re joking or not.

Liquid and rockets is a death sentence.

Liquid and space vessels is worse.

Liquids on reentry is never going to happen.
