Could Fullborn Survive in Outer Space?

[+ILuvHats he/him]

I think they could, but I’m not always the best with these kinds of questions, so I’ll leave it to the experts.  Obviously, fullborn have access to an infinite supply of oxygen and heat as long as they have metals.  My main concern is that if the lungs are full of air they’d burst and the fullborn would die.  I’m not sure if compounding breath means filling the lungs with air, or simply bypassing the lungs and oxygenating the blood directly.  If it’s the latter, a fullborn could avoid bursting lungs by breathing out all the air in the lungs before venturing into space.  However, air accumulates in the digestive tract as well, so I don’t know if anything else might burst or not.  Also, I get the feeling that there are adverse effects to having oxygen streaming out of your body due to gas exchange, even if the oxygen is constantly being replaced.  I don’t know what any of the effects this might have are, though.  I wonder if compounding weight would prevent oxygen from escaping the body since it has to increase density to prevent the body from collapsing...

Thoughts, ideas, opinions?

They can oxygenate their blood. Hope that helps

A fullborn could heal any damage done to their body by gas exchange. Also I'd imagine that they could burn pewter and reinforce their body.

After this comment, I get the sudden feeling that my question contained all the possible answers and now nobody else has much to add .  Thank you for the answer though @King Cole.  I wasn’t sure about how breath worked.

Ah I didn’t see you omniforce.  I wonder how I forgot about gold compounding.  So obvious that I was oblivious to it, I suppose

A Fullborn could certainly survive but not indefinitely. Compounding offers a vast amount of whichever attribute you want but it doesn't offer infinite amounts forever.

Exactly what @Agent34 said.

They could easily survive until their metal reserves died. 

After that, they would be a human in space.

They wouldn't even need to use oxygenation - as tissue died from lack of oxygen they could just heal and replace it.
