Rockets In a Vacuum Chamber Newton’s Third Law Of Motion Visualized

Advertisemen

I Ignite a SRB Rocket Motor in a vacuum chamber in slow motion to Challenge Newtons Third Law of motion. Do newtons laws of motion apply in a Vacuum?.

If we get a reaction and the rocket motor produces thrust while in a vacuum then we know Newtons 3rd Law applies regardless of the presence of an atmosphere and many of the theories can be put to rest.

I Also Ignited a Model Rocket Engine inside the giant vacuum chamber, engines cannot burn in space at all, in a way we are busting a myth, but this was a viewer request.
