There’s gotta be an image to go with this scenario but I’ll be damned if I know what it is :)

Oxygen and sparks don’t mix. I thought this was learned in 1967 in Apollo 1.
Don’t they teach this common knowledge to surgeons, anesthesiologists, and nurses?

Semi-related ...
We all know oxygen is part of most combustion process.
So the question came up? If a space walking astronaut fires your standard handgun in space. Will the gunpowder ignite and fire the projectile ? Or will the lack of air impact and prevent the gunpowder from igniting ?
To: BenLurkin
Heartburn? No big deal. Just pop a couple of these...

Dave Roever was severely burned by a phosphorous grenade and tells the story that doctors were shocked when they opened him up as a smoldering piece burst into flame!

Maybe something to do with "Burning Man"?

You sure do expect a lot out of people, in this new age of diversity, affirmative action, feelings, and bribing your way through school, who has time to study arcane knowledge like that?
It’s a Brave New World! hold on tight.

No different than rocket engine combustion. The fuels use a propellant and an oxidizer. They don’t depend on oxygen from the surroundings.
Same with firearms propellants. Old fashioned “gunpowder” consists of a mixture of sulfur (S), charcoal (C), and potassium nitrate (saltpeter, KNO3). The sulfur and charcoal act as fuels while the saltpeter is the oxidizer.

My doctor wouldn’t let me smoke when I had open heart surgery.
