SteveIn space, an egg would float due to the lack of gravity. Without the force of gravity pulling the denser yolk downward, the egg would retain its shape and appear spherical. In the vacuum of space, the egg would not cook or freeze instantly as commonly believed, but it would eventually freeze over time due to the extreme cold temperatures.

What is an egg air space?
An egg air space is the pocket of air that forms between the eggshell and the egg white as an egg ages. The size of the air space increases as the egg gets older due to moisture loss through the shell. It is used to determine the freshness and quality of an egg.
What is the function of the air space in an egg?
The developing chick inside the egg needs air once its lungs develop, this reserve air sac allows the chick to breathe and gives them room to maneuver when it is time to peep (break out of the shell).

Will an egg timer work in space?
No, traditional egg timers rely on gravity to work, as they use a mechanism that depends on the flow of sand or liquid downward to measure time accurately. In a space environment where there is no gravity, these mechanisms would not function as intended.
