Can things burn in space?

Yes, things can burn in space, but the process is different than on Earth. Fire requires oxygen, and while space itself is a vacuum and lacks oxygen, combustion can occur in spacecraft or other environments where oxygen is present. In microgravity, flames behave differently, forming spherical shapes and burning more slowly due to the lack of buoyancy to draw in fresh oxygen.


What is smoldering flame?

A smoldering flame is a type of combustion that occurs without a visible flame, typically characterized by glowing embers and the release of smoke. It often happens when materials, such as wood or charcoal, burn at low temperatures with limited oxygen, resulting in incomplete combustion. This process can produce hazardous gases and can be difficult to extinguish, as it may continue to burn slowly for an extended period. Smoldering flames are commonly associated with wildfires and can pose significant risks to both health and safety.

Why wood burns without a flame?

It burns slowly (reaction with oxygen at lower rate) at relatively low temperature (150oC). In a good fire place or a funeral pile temperature has risen and flames will appear, can grow to more than 10 metres high (forest fires!)

Is oxygen your health in dead space?

No. There's a glowing bar on the back of your RIG, which displays your current health. It can be upgraded and extended by attaching Power Nodes to the RIG. Oxygen is only used when in a vacuum, in which case it is slowly used up the longer you spend in there. When the oxygen runs out, its game over. However, it is not your health during this time, as you can still die from being attacked and your health bar depleting like you would normally without the air completely running out.


Is it true that the more oxygen you need the more slowly you breathe?

False, the more oxygen you need the faster you will breathe.
