What if you fire a bullet in space? [🎞️ Zack D. Films]

Straight line, forever? So there’s now no gravity in space? No gravity to act upon the bullet? C’mon man

Thats scary. Some dude is just chilling on his asteroid mining away and then blammm 😮🤦‍♂️

With no oxygen would the gunpowder even ignite?

This is not true

You would be pushed back, this video is wrong. There would be a small explosion when the firing pin hits the back of the bullet’s shell casing) the bullet would be propelled out of the barrel and you would be propelled an equal amount in the opposite direction

You would also be propelled backwards in a straight line forever.

You can't fire a bullet in space. There is no oxygen

This rhetoric has no sense. Newton's 3rd law of motion anybody? As for the missile's flight trajectory, it depends on the direction of the shot, the cosmonaut's orbital state, the distance, speed from Earth and other relevant mass bodies and many other factors.

Gravity would like a word

Not enough oxygen for combustion. Don’t think you could fire in the first place
