If you still think this tin foil paper mache piece of shit landed humans on the moon, you are not a real truther and you may have some sort of disability.

No, not enough pressure in the can for it to explode. Needs to be pressurized something like 6 times as much.

Yes there is. We did it in a highschool experiment. A can of soda in the vaccum chamber. It exploded. I saw it with my own eyes.

Edit: Found someone doing it on youtube https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Du0opEpGQtA

Ah sorry for late reply, I understand now that the pressure the can of soda takes externally doesn't equate to the internal pressure on the can wall. The way the top of the can is made gives that pinch of steel the to ability to withstand 6x atmospheres down on it, but pushing out from inside, then the seam fails. My apologies, if you redesign the can to take internal pressure (i.e. roll the seam the other way, then the wall thickness will hold the pressure of the can against a vacuum.)
