You can do your own vacuum test out in the garage (though radiation is
a bit harder to simulate) by putting some really nasty underwear in a
can, heating it to 250F, and pulling a hard vacuum on it for a day or
two, then remove the shorts and smear the crotch all over your
tongue... Taste anything?

It tasted like dirty underwear.
The smell however was different. It smelled like some pilots I met at a
fly-in in Indiana.
