Does not equal flaming log even if you do compare igniting and flame temperatures.
Let alone pull data out of your butt.

I once was in charge of some Civil Air Patrol cadets on a camp out and one cadet brought her little brother because no one else could look after him. I found him with a lit match against the side of a ten inch thick log trying to start a fire. As an adult with children of my own, I tried to explain why he could not get it hot enough, needed small sticks, etc, with no result. His sister saw the discussion, walked over, smacked him side of the head, and yelled, "Stop it stupid". His response, "I almost got it".
Funny how "life experience" changes things, I cant ever remember being told about that but I grew up watching fires being lit, long before I can remember, I was either told or figured it out. By the time I was eight I could get our front room coke fire going just with newspapers.

Solid helium melts at -272K and absolute zero is -273.15K, so it melts at 1.15K. But solid helium must be under pressure of 2500kPa (363psi) at <1degK or it stays a liquid, no matter what.

Ahh yes, the F-104 makes the list because of the West German Air Force's issues.
As has been stated countless times, the Germans were not using it as intended and paid the price.

-A very common sense attitude. When I receive those warnings I heed them.

Yeah, so I kept scrolling and it showed another article below it stating weapons too dangerous for war or something like that. #1 was landmines

My first thought is they're thinking of the re-entry temperatures, in which case someone would have to explain to them how ablative shielding works.

I did a quick glance for laughs and got a real good laugh in the first paragraph.
