I dont see the problem, space is cold, he probably froze just after his heart stopped beating, sure, he was dead, but he was also in cryogenic stasis - which would preserve body and brain tissue. from there you can assume that he was picked up in low orbit by the Shadow Broker and placed in another cryo pod.
-Space is a vacuum. If anything it would preserve but extremely depressurize Shepard's body. With no medium to transport heat. The rate at which Shepard was gasping for breath, if introduced to a vacuum, would tear their lungs apart.
-Though Cryogenics exists in the ME universe, I'm quite sure the procedure does not involve getting spaced.
--If you're referring to freezing someone, the issue of crystalization of moisture in ones body becomes an issue. Crystals would shatter the tissues and bonds of the body, causing it to expand and literally destroy itself. I'm looking at you, Brain.
-The devs say Shepard hit the planet. Now, this does not explain how they survived re-entry into the methane & ammonia atmosphere. Additionally, they do not understand velocity in space, explosive velocity, or high-altitude jumps, or what happens to matter when it collides with the ground after travelling several thousand miles an hour.
Yet somehow after this predicament which would lead Shepard's body to become atomized in the few ways listed, it becomes preserved. Heck, even their helmet and armor is found on the ground of Alchera, somehow.
And if you cant accept Shepard's resurrection as it is 'scientifically impossible' then i suggest you break your copy of Mass Effect right now. Because its impossible to get 'element zero' in this universe, as there is no possible configuration for a atom bellow hydrogen, unless theres a weird configuration of quarks that form a half-proton which could go with a half-electron. which there isnt.
You're not making sense.
First, there is Eezo in the ME universe. This is not in contention. But what does Eezo have to do with Shepard's resurrection? I've no doubt that if the writer tells me resurrection is possible, it is. They just have to show or tell me how that's possible. ME2 did not do this.
As for your understanding of Eezo, which implies 0 protons in the nucleus of an atom. It also implies 0 neutrons and 0 electrons. Now I have no idea what that means, or how Eezo is an actual element, and that's fine. It's an actual
thing in the universe we can point to. It's the "unobtainium" that gives people biotic powers.
Now if Shepard's resurrection involved eezo, or some kind of unobtainium that rebuilt their cells, then we'd go "oh, that's how." Or something to that effect. But we can't. Not only that, but that little substance has to explain the Death, Preservation and Resurrection in some way.
We're not necessarily looking for a scientific explanation to answer those questions, although that'd be cool. We're looking for a literary means of lampshading or explaining those questions away.
