Amazing Space Marshmallows

This video shows the effect of a vacuum on marshmallows.

The video could be used to reinforce the fact that space is a vacuum and explain why astronauts need to wear spacesuits.

For older students, it could also be used as a demonstration of Boyle's law, which relates pressure and volume for gases.
