[Milsurplus] Query

[Pete Williams]

 May be  stoopid question, but what's the atmospheric pressure outside the
space station..? the vacuum in a vacuum/electron/valve  tube is  around 10
to minus 10 of atmospheric pressure or a bit greater,  so would it be
possible to use a  tube without the  glass envelope  in this environment?
Google  didn't tell me pressure outside  space station or I might have
missed the reference.
Just curious.
