    Theorists, Iron Lung is one SCARY game! I don't mean the sea of blood and huge monster fish either. I'm talking about the state of the UNIVERSE. Specifically the missing suns. That is a BIG red flag in any kind of survival. So today, Austin is going to try and figure out if humans could SURVIVE with no sun. Let's go!

    During the game, when you take a picture of a monster’s face and you hear a loud thrashing and impact, it actually makes sense and isn’t just because this monster is hyper aggressive and kills whatever it sees. Essentially this monster is a deep sea creature, meaning that its eyes are not used to bright lights. In other words, you just flashbanged a creature five your size and now it’s angry that you hurt it.

      and honestly...? the idea of zombies seems less plausible, than a star going fump and leaving us all boned, to me. we know stars have a life span. so, Eventually, ours will go poof.
      the question isn't _if_ but *when.*
      the Other question, in My mind at least, is will we as creatures living here still be around to care by then? we're due another mass extinction event. and given how soft we've gotten (we didn't exactly get high points in constitution to begin with... we put all the points in being dumb asses) the likelihood that the next event will be Ours is pretty strong. so. in that respect, all this is moot and we'll just have to hope whatever evolves next will have the cajonés to handle it.

    I realized midway through that assuming the blood moon has an Earth-like gravity it meets five of the six requirements immediately: gravity not unlike Earth’s, food (the fish), water (one of the main components of plasma is water), oxygen (blood is oxygenated), and heat (it would have to have geothermal energy otherwise the blood would freeze). While the scientists in-game probably didn’t know about the fish, the blood moon would have still satisfied four out of six requirements in their eyes. In other words, the blood moon wasn’t JUST chosen because a sea of blood is weird: it was chosen because with only light and life (because again they didn’t know about the fish and their advanced technology could probably get the water and oxygen straight out of the blood), it would be the perfect planet to colonize.

      True, but we don't respirate nitrogen. Any inert gas can replace it, as long as it dilutes the oxygen in the air to 20% without any side effects. And even then, because we don't consume these inert gases, we don't need to worry about depleting them and recycling them, just maintaining the 20% O2.
