On my first post on this subject, I had a spacecraft like the
shuttle fuel tank, a large cylinder filled with STP air, shirtsleeve
environment and a dude or dudette places a balloon in the center
of that space and then a rocket is ignited at one end, the question
being what happens to the balloon?
Variation: The same situation, this time the volume is filled with
STP of helium not air. Rocket ignites as before. NOW what happens
to the balloon?
