So, in space, fluids behave like bubbles, sticking together due to surface tension, even allowing it to be grabbed by chopsticks.

Yeah....... whatever you say. Be sure and let us know when you're posting some science experiments you've done on yourself here. Think how respected you will be if you do that. You could demonstrate how gravity doesnt effect you, how your liver can take 100 pain killers, or loads of other fun things.
Keep us posted on the good work :)
Cheers!
