minus-squaredragontamer@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up11·edit-21 year agoPortal 2 ends with you (Chell) placing a entry portal on Earth vs an exit portal on the Moon. That means the portals were ~2236 mph (aka Mach3) relative to each other.
minus-squareSuddenDownpour@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up1·1 year agoWouldn’t that provoke all air in the Earth to get sucked to the Moon due to the difference in atmospheric pressure?
minus-squareSerdan@lemm.eelinkfedilinkarrow-up4·1 year agoVacuum doesn’t suck. The atmosphere on Earth would push air through the portal with a pressure of about 1 bar.
minus-squareArcheTelos@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up3·1 year agoYes, but the flow rate is only so much. It was only open for a short time before Glados closed it.
minus-squarejemorgan@lemm.eelinkfedilinkarrow-up1·1 year agoHmm well if an object passed through that portal and it wasn’t moving ~2236mph relative to the surface of the moon, then I guess the question from the OP has been answered already haha.
