Well, friend, lighting thermite without magnesium can be a bit tricky, but it's possible. One way is to use a propane torch or a strong heat source to ignite the thermite mixture directly. Just remember to take proper safety precautions and handle it with care, like we do with all things in life - with a gentle touch and a kind heart.

How can one safely and effectively light thermite?

To safely and effectively light thermite, one should use a magnesium strip or a sparkler as an ignition source. It is important to wear protective gear such as gloves and goggles, and to stand at a safe distance when igniting thermite to avoid potential injury from the intense heat and sparks produced during the reaction.


Does thermite work in space?

Thermite has its own oxygen source so it can burn without an outer source of oxygen, including underwater and in the vacuum of space. However, I do doubt that thermite can burn in space, since space is quite cold. It would just depend in how far away from the Sun you are when you light the thermite.
