Wet laundry placed in the vacuum of space freezes and then undergoes sublimation
Is it true that wet laundry placed in the vacuum of space freezes and then undergoes sublimation?
Wet laundry placed in the vacuum of space will freeze due to rapid evaporative cooling and then undergo sublimation, as ambient low pressure prevents liquid water from existing stably.

The behavior of water in a vacuum (evaporative cooling leading to freezing, followed by sublimation of the ice) is a fundamental, well-established principle of thermodynamics and phase equilibria. No specific citation of the retrieved papers is needed for this basic physical fact.
