Why NASA Is Lighting Fires on the Moon: The Gravity Blind Spot in Spacecraft Safety Standards
NASA is preparing to deliberately ignite fires on the lunar surface. The Flammability of Materials on the Moon (FM2) experiment, developed by NASA Glenn Research Center, Johnson Space Center, and Case Western Reserve University, will send a self-contained combustion chamber to the Moon aboard a Commercial Lunar Payload Services flight.
