The Space Station over time will recieve new modules, and will grow over time.

Jeez, enough of this science garbage. Who cares?!
-
so when we measure vacuum in "inches of mercury" in-Hg or TORR it is relative to the normal 14psi that we dont feel.
-
all relative to 0 of course.
-
the term "vacuum" is relative and applying it to space is somewhat inaccurate. IRL there is no such thing as negative pressure. 0 pressure is as low as it gets just like 0 kelvin for temperature. vacuum indicates a difference in pressure between zones. on earth the normal air pressure is around 14 psi at sea level. a jar with only 5 psi in it would be in a state of vacuum.
-
Thats essentially what's happening. The higher pressure air moves to the lower pressure in an attempt to equalize the pressure between the 2 zones.
-
Yes, but this is not the way to simulate it. Space does not pull the air out of ships, the air forces itself out.
-
Well space is a vacuum...

If you want to be more realistic, make the inside high pressure, not the outside low pressure.
