...ok..the educated people have to line up and give me an answer ( i know the line will be short )...can you have an explosion in a vacuum ?....is
"outer space" a true vacuum ?...if you cannot have an explosion in a vacuum and outer space is a true vacuum is it possible that when we see
the romulan warships explode in outer space that the "gas" necessary to
allow the explosion is just a local gas environment from within the container
of the ship and it is sufficient to create a momentary non-vacuum at the site of the explosion ?...i would like an answer to this problem...i would like
to continue to believe that when i watch outer space movies that i am seeing reality and not some foolish fantasy with impossible exploding star ships...thank you for your time...

If you exploded it would be even better.

If there is a vacumn in a pressurised container you can have an implosion.
Originally posted by reinfeldYes, explosions are possible in a vacuum.

No, space is not a true "perfect" vacuum, but to all intents and purposes, it is.
When you see a space ship explode in sci-fi programs, it is not entirely accurate, as the flame and sound would likely not be there. (sound definitely not, but the flame may be possible depending on the internal environment of the ship, it would be very short-lived though)
Also, when watching space ships explode on tv, remember the need for dramatic license.

No, so there is no ignition source, therefore I dont think so!

Now I need to buy a new one and clean up the mess. 😠
Please stop asking silly questions and try for yourself next time.

You can produce and explosion through pressure changes, temperature changes or chemical combinations that create combustion from contact alone. The closest thing we have to a true vaccuum is a black hole. The creation of chaos is likened to an explosion in that it is a major transfer of energy from one source to another. So, I would say, yes to the question can you have an explosion in a vaccuum.

Originally posted by adramforallA vacuum cleaner is not a vacuum, it's a cleaner that cleans so well that it leaves a vacuum. So you should first have cleaned your room until it was a vacuum, and then you could have tried to create an explosion in the room.
