I am happy to inform you that even a 100% oxygen atmosphere is not going to kill humans, altough they might need to periodically breathe a closed breathing loop with an co2 scrubber in the longrun to give the lungs a break.OldRat said:After that the real, gray and boring button will appear. Pressing it will up the oxygen content of the athmosphere by 500 000% immidiately. This will result in horrible things really quickly.
Because the Atmosphere is not a closed space, the increase to a partial pressure of 1050 bar will probably result in a massive volumetric increase of the atmosphere, but not likely in a much higher pressure. Haven't done the calculations on that one, but even an oxygen pressure increase by 760% is not problematic for humans.
Now if you increased the pressure of nitrogen, THAT would have more interesting effects (like everybody beeing high).
Yeah i know.. i just felt the need to point that out.
