Imagination is more important than getting knowledge.

(Probably found from the credits of NileRed’s video [here](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l0u8Vtf2GoQ) that was linked in the recent [WCGW post](https://www.reddit.com/r/Whatcouldgowrong/comments/k8vvxl/wcgw_microwaving_a_lit_match_under_a_glass/) )
Try cleaning your microwave
What exactly happens here tho?
Jesus, microwave a damp sponge to get some good steam going and then scrub that fucking thing out.
So why do we have to donate this stuff from our body? Why can’t we just harvest it from the microwave and send it to the hospitals
You can actually make plasma with a single grape
Does this damage the microwave?
If you plan to do this yourself, watch [this](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tGqVMbAQhBs) first. It’s fun and may be worth it to you.
Didn’t NileRed do this
Bye bye becker
Works with stuff like grapes or orbees, too. Pretty much anything that holds water and can be connected by a thin film. With grapes, cut one in half and then again, leaving a little skin connecting the quarters. Put a jar or glass above it like in this video, elevated with some toothpicks or something else that isn’t wet or likely to quickly combust (like don’t use matches).
With orbees, just soak a pair in water and have them touching once they expand. Same deal with the glass or jar.
It also works with CDs and DVDs (one at a time, no jar) but I don’t recommend that with a microwave you plan on using for food anytime soon because it makes nasty vapors.
Oh nice, they found ground zero for COVID19
Can’t get over how dirty that microwave is
why doesn’t covering the flame up with a jar extinguish it (no air)? Do they just start up the microwave quick enough that it “changes” to plasma before it can go out?

Idk but looks hot
RIP Beaker
So now all we need to do is figure out how to put this in a gun and shoot it.
Plasma, the 4th state of matter. Accelerate it in an electric field and you’ll have an ion engine.
