Liquid lungs for divers and space travelers envisioned
Tests describe future diving and astronautics using liquid breathing. Rare gas mixtures may prevent gas embolism and allow deeper, safer underwater limits. The idea involves artificial gills, high oxygen liquids, and pump assisted circulation with silicon rubber membranes to exchange gases through fluids inside the lungs.
