Spacing was a form of execution where the condemned was placed in an airlock without a space suit and sent into the vacuum of space.
If a being was spaced while a ship was in hyperspace, the body would disintegrate (its atoms would "cease to have any coherent meaning") once outside the ship's protective shield.
