Spacing

Spacing was the practice of ejecting a human being into space without the protection of a skinsuit or other form of space suit.This could be done with or without killing them first.
Many crews of slave ships spaced their cargo when expecting to be boarded, thus getting rid of the evidence. However, after the ratification of the equipment clause to the Cherwell Convention, the Star Kingdom of Manticore and the Republic of Haven adopted the official position that a slaver crew found without a living cargo would be immediately tried for mass murder and, if convicted, executed by ejection from an airlock without space suits.
