Priests in certain cultures believed that mummifying bodies helped preserve them for the afterlife. The process of mummification was often associated with religious rituals and beliefs, with the goal of preparing the deceased for their journey to the next world. Additionally, mummification was believed to maintain the deceased's physical form so they could be recognized in the afterlife.
In space, without oxygen or bacteria, decomposition would not occur. A dead body in a suit would be well preserved due to the extreme cold temperatures and lack of oxygen, essentially mummifying it. Without a suit, the body would be exposed to radiation and extreme temperatures, causing it to freeze-dry and mummify as well.
No, the opposite would happen. The two bodies would be repelled.
When a person is trapped in a glacier, the intense pressure from the ice can cause the body to shrink and mummify due to the dehydration and lack of oxygen. This process is known as glacier mummification, where the extreme conditions preserve the body by preventing decomposition. It is a rare phenomenon that has been observed in some cases of bodies found in glaciers.
