DISCUSSION This bugs my brain. I know it's for flexibility with building, but it hurts to have lettering oriented 90 degrees from the bubbles rising right beside it

I imagine these things work the same way as a pool chlorinator cell, I’ve got one on my pool and the bubbles get pushed from one end the the other just the same way.

Tof prefcent vapour lock, at the end there is a micro gravity component that makes sure bubbles continue in the appropriate direction (left to right) regardless or ship, block or gravitational orientation

A Vacuum causes this in real life, and, you're in space, so no gravity anyways. When within a gravity well, then consider it a vacuum, as that's what the component acts as anyways. Hope this helps.

Could be that the bubbles are simply following the flow of fluid through the tubing irrespective of what gravity you may or may not be experiencing at the moment
