MadSci Network: Biophysics |
Well, I am super fantastically stoked with this mind boggling question. My support team and myself sat around late nights in fancy white lab coats, attempting to find an answer to this query. Through various equations, my research team has apparently found the answer. EUREKA! I cried. After years of research, an answer has been found for "WHY DOES SPAGHETTI SUCK?" Wait... that's not right. "HOW DOES SPAGHETTI SUCK?" No...OH! "HOW DO YOU SUCK SPAGHETTI?"Yes. Thats it. Well Mr. Dude, it seems that as you decrease the air pressure inside your mouth, the external pressure of the earths atmosphere remains constant. When the difference in air pressure is great enough to move the spaghetti, the spaghetti noodle(s) get "sucked" into your mouth at a very high velocity. We have achieved spaghetti speeds in excess of 850 mph. I must travel to my alternate time zone, as I can only stay in the past for a brief period of time, what with our power limitations and all. Ta' for now!
