Why do afterschocks occur?
I'm assuming you know how earthquakes occur and all an aftershock is a smaller earthquake after a larger one. If the "aftershock" is larger than the main shock it is reclassified as the main shock and the previous "main shock" becomes a foreshock.
Who can safely touch the injured person during shock delivery?

Does electric shock occur in space?
An electric shock could occur in space. One thing to keep in mind about electrical shocks is that if the body provides a return path for current to flow then an electrical shock will occur. It does not matter if it is in space or on earth, touching a potential across the output supply on a high voltage system is going to short circuit the supply through you.
