This is completely out of touch with physical reality.
Yes, I was going to say I agree with that too -- and your previous
message. Actually, the event was about 15 or 20 seconds, not 10.
Anyway, a heat release on that scale lasting even a fraction of a
second would have triggered a conventional recombination explosion
in the headspace, although not in the incubator I suppose.
What scale? What is the evidence such a heat release actually took
place?
Mizuno reported that the glow began underwater, as shown in the
drawings recreating the event from memory. It remained underwater
for an appreciable length of time -- enough for him to take note of
it.
The very small mass of accelerating material at high kinetic
energy could not
have damaged a much larger mass of tubing or other parts (million
to one mass difference).
Utter nonsense!
The Tygon tubes were reportedly undamaged.
Yes, not even rearranged. Yet the explosion pressure wave, the
origin of which is perportedly the cathode nestled inside the Tygon
tubes, was sufficient to blow apart the cell, and blow open the
incubator door prior to the arrival of the glass shards. Quite a
bunch of miracles!
You don't need a report. The evidence is at:
