Sock Deterioration in Microgravity

The Sock-Space Conundrum

It's 1985 and the Soviet Union's Sputnik 1 spacecraft has just launched. As it soars into orbit, a lone sock slips into the cosmos, marking the beginning of the Sock-Space Deterioration.

As the sock floats away from the Earth's gravitational grasp, it's subjected to extreme temperatures, radiation, and zero-G forces. The once-sturdy sock begins to fray and unravel, its very fabric disintegrating before our eyes.

But wait, it gets worse! The sock's disintegration creates a rift in the space-time continuum, causing nearby astronauts to experience strange visions of missing footwear in the most unlikely of places.

Learn more about the sock's eventual rebirth as a sentient, space-dwelling entity.
