There is no air in space, thus no medium for vibrations to propagate through; so yes, in space no one would hear you scream. You also wouldnโ€™t be able to scream anyway since the vacuum would literally suck the air out of your lungs the moment you opened your mouth to scream. Not to mention all the other nasty shit that would happen upon being exposed to the vacuum.

As a true scientist I refuse to take your claims without proper evidence.

I require that you test this claim by releasing the richest 1000 Americans into space to assert your claims.

I will also accept the whole of the US Federal Government.

Can you do a kickstarter campaign to raise several billion dollars to build the rockets? Would it need to cost that much if thereโ€™s no cabin and we just tie them to a booster? ๐Ÿค”

No. We need to be scientific. We would need a control group. 2000 of the richest Americans will be released into space, but 1000 will have their mouths stapled/glued shut as a control group.

SCIENCE! (Thatโ€™s how it works, right?)

Which is actually surprisingly little! Just by random chance thereโ€™s no human body part that bursts in a vacuum. You inflate a bit and pass out due to partially boiled blood, but accidents have shown that if pressure is restored quickly a fit young person will get away with sore ears and nothing else.
