Corrected entry: Throughout the movie, the setting takes place on Io which has a gravitation that is roughly one fifth of that on earth, very much like our moon. In real life all characters would be bouncing like kangaroos and all objects dropped, float like feathers. Even so, whatever the pull, it affects all objects equally and in the same direction meaning it would be impossible for Spotas dead body to float in the jail cell in a no-gravity manner while his blood drips upward (away from the surface i might add).

Correction: As with most science fiction films set in space, the facility has some unexplained system of artificial gravity. This is evidenced by the fact that characters are able to jump very high when outside but not inside. The jail cells simply do not use the artificial gravity or atmosphere of the facility. This makes it more difficult for the prisoners to try to escape.
