The main difference between swimming and flying is basically just how compressible the fluid you're moving through is, so it's not that different really. Although I guess you can fly through space so my attempt to sound clever kind of falls through, huh?

you're mostly right !
you can fly through space, but not like a bird flies through air or sharks swim in water; "swimming" in space is way weirder.
I can't find it, but there's a video on PBS Space Time where they talk about how that could work

Just look at the compression in 3D (resistance to existing motion) instead of just in an up/down 2D plane and your analogy still works, even in space.

Well, are they?

I understand not wanting to go 100% weird with most people, but damnit weird is interesting. So be a bit weird.

No, they think it's space.

Do fish think of water just as little as we think of the air? edit: changed a g to a k
