Let’s suppose we could dump enough “breathable” air (whatever that means for humans) into the solar system that it filled the spaces between planets.

What would happen?

A - I imagine it would then become possible to fly airplanes between planets, perhaps balloons? Would space travel become easier or harder?

B - According to another lemmy post, we would start to hear sound waves from the sun (A constant jackhammer sound - delightful)

C - Each each planet become the center of some mega cyclone (like the Jupiter storms, but bigger)?

D - At some point the air above us wouldn’t be pushing down onto the earth at sea level, could we survive the additional pressure?

    Now I’m curious if everything orbiting in space would “burn up” from the sudden friction like when an orbiting object comes into contact with an atmosphere.
