How do you burn fire in outer space?
It is not possible to burn a fire in outer space because fire requires oxygen to burn, and in the vacuum of space where there is no oxygen, there can be no combustion. On space missions, fires are not ignited but rather prevented through strict safety protocols and the use of non-flammable materials.
Does a meteorite burn the Earth's atmosphere?
No. The atmosphere burns up the meteorite.
How does the shuttle fire burn its engines in space?
The shuttle does not fire it's engines in space, it only fires orbit adjusters.
What is a rock from space that burns in space?
A meteor. But it does not burn in space. When it enters the earth's atmosphere it starts to glow from friction caused by its contact with our atmosphere. At this stage is is technically called a meteor. When it lands on the ground it is called a meteorite.

How would fans affect a fire on the International Space Station?

What is the name of an object from space that has hit the earth's surface?
It is called a meteorite
Why can't you see fire in space?
Fire needs oxygen to burn, and space is a vacuum with no oxygen. Without oxygen, fire cannot ignite or sustain itself. Additionally, in the absence of gravity, flames burn in a spherical shape, which may not be easily visible from a distance.
How can there be fire in space without oxygen?
Fire in space can occur without oxygen because it doesn't need air to burn. In space, fire can happen due to the presence of fuel and heat, even in the absence of oxygen.
What do you call a meteorite that contains fire?
A meteorite that contains fire is often referred to as a "fireball" when it is still in the atmosphere and producing a bright light due to friction with the air. Once it lands on Earth, it may simply be called a "meteorite," but it does not retain the fire itself. In some contexts, if it contains minerals that can ignite or exhibit pyrophoric properties, it might be described as a "pyrophoric meteorite." However, the term "fire meteorite" is not widely used in scientific literature.
What do you call a rock that falls out of space?
