Farfalen R&D #12

Name: Gap-gel

Emplaced in containers throughout the ship is a synthetically prepared gel. This gel is kept at roughly three hundred degrees Kelvin. When a hull breech is detected the nearest container (usually no more then three meters away) opens up and te gel is released. Hopefully the gel will freeze by the time it hits the much cooler hull and the much cooler outerspace, freezing it entirely over the breech.

Inside the hull, and when there is a hull breech, there is pressure being lost. The gel is sucked to the whole and when it hits outerspace it will freeze. Its gel, of course.

A few questions.

Is it on the inside, or outside, or contained within the hull its self?

When a hull breech is detected, does the stuff flow by itself, or is it forcibly sprayed at the hole?

Does the addition of the Gel remove any hull stability?
