Fires can't burn in the oxygen-free vacuum of space, but guns can shoot. Modern ammunition contains its own oxidizer, a chemical that will trigger the explosion of gunpowder, and thus the firing of a bullet, wherever you are in the universe.

BIG assumption. There is no guarentee that phsyics, and thusly chemistry, is a constant everywhere in the universe. All I'd need to do is adjust the Planck Constant just a bit, and the results might be that upon pulling the trigger, Bugs Bunny would peek out the barrel with a little BANG flag, kiss you on the nose, then dive back into the barrel.

Much hilarity ensues.

You are absolutely correct.In 2010,A team of astrophysicists based in Australia and England has uncovered evidence that the laws of physics are different in different parts of the universe

Well, if your gun/rifle is on your shoulder when you pull the trigger then you probably wouldn't have time to see Bugs Bunny cause it would put you into a spin without end.

Of course that wouldn't be true if you are in a 'No Spin Zone'.

Might make it hard to do the test if the condition of space itself isn’t conducive to life.

[GAB-1955]

There certainly is a guarantee that the laws of physics hold everywhere. Ask any astronomer.

Geez, wherever you carried the round, the physics would remain the same for the round since that is something from one part of the universe you're carrying into another part--the physics are inherent in the physical materials of which the round is constructed. Besides, it's called UNI verse for a reason.

Holy Black Hole Laz-Man! With that response, I'm guessing you have been hitting the (great?) granddaughters of Einstein and Blanc at the same time.
