I just got the kit and started using it day befor dertesyay, and I recommend it. I’ve been smoking for over 60 years and its different, but I think its going to work. Its about half the cost of what I’ve been spending on 2 cartons of reg cigs, and so far so good.

People should ireacnse their self-awareness especially for safety reasons. This tips are easy to keep in mind but would really be helpful if something comes up.

You should throw a box of 50.cal tracers into a fire and see what happens

‘Thrustierness’

I’d like to know, based on the viral vid “car lift” – Using detachable high pressure hoses (as altitude is gained the hoses break off as pumping ceases)…

…Water recycled through a huge reservoir, pumped at very high pressure – on a scale with a hydroelectric dam, although modelled to create and confirm/dispel myth.

If this lift is sufficient to supplement rocket launch, and the fuel being expended could make the steam ‘explosive’ and gives further thrust that is exploited by the design of the craft, then missions could become significantly less expensive, and with less fuel to carry – safer.

Could Mythbusters do an entry level experiment?

Yes, and this experiment was done by an astronaut during one of the moon landings with a feather and a hammer.

WRONG!!! I.ve seen it done with flour, custard powder, talc. As long as it is in a fine enough cloud, it can burn!!

In practical terms, no, Oxygen is not “flammable”. Go read any MSDS sheet on Oxygen and the flammability sections will be listed as “N/A”. It only forms one part of the three parts required for fire: Fuel, Heat and Oxygen. It is however a “Hazardous Oxydizer” and because of its potential to rapidly accelerate combustion, should be treated as if it were.

Also, I’ve never tried powdered rock or talc but I do know from personal experimentation that steel powder and steel wool burns nicely with a normal flame when provided just a little more Oxygen than is normally present in the atmosphere.

Of course, steel is sensitive to oxydation. It rusts. Maybe that’s the key, not the “flammability” of the powder’s source. If it oxydizes, it can burn.
