Valentine Day Package 2005
Posted on Sunday, February 14th, 2010 at 6:40 pm
One of my earliest memories involves a four of July in Annandale, Minnesota, sat on a hill and watching fireworks. Our family has a cottage at Cedar Lake, a mile and a half, and came to the screen with a bath of ice cream a few empty lots of popcorn and a thermos of raspberry Kool-Aid. Would not surprise me if was the first time he was allowed to stay beyond my bed at 8:00.
Like all children and many adults I was motionless, his mouth open all the time. I've never seen anything like it. Red, yellow and green flowers in the sky and loud explosions to me led to the hand of my mother. And the final whistle came, spewing smoke and the American flag in red, white and blue.
Wow! How do they do?
Neither my mother or father had no idea. I was curious, but did nothing to find out how everything worked up This year when I saw the fireworks with the Boston Pops on television. I finally decided I needed to know and Google search for a great website called howstuffworks.com. If reading this article you will spoil the fun next year for you, just stop here.
Ready? In short, the fireworks are common variants of two objects fourth July - Flares and fireworks - on paper and a coat of chain and launched a mortar. Firecrackers are really nothing more than sticks of dynamite in miniature fuses with the role of black powder. They are designed to burn rapidly and explode. The eruptions are like corn dogs, a metal rod surrounded by particles held together with adhesive resin and are designed to burn more slowly. The aluminum, magnesium and zinc, all traffic lights.
In the fireworks, Bengal lights and fireworks are called stars Artificial bursting charge. The stars may be spheres, cubes or cylinders. They look like a can of peas with a firecracker in the middle. The rocket is the breaking load. A mortar is actually a pipe, launch fireworks in the sky. The body of the star also contains black powder to help transform the accusations, and the metal particles to create sparks beautiful.
The process begins when the arsonist lighting technician in charge of starting the mortar. It also lights the fuse on the inside office. The explosive charge was scheduled to go to the right height when he lights the stars and throws them off. The agreement in the package will determine how the screen. Like a Russian doll, the stars may have more stars within them, and with stars in them.
The most common palm, round shell, shell, willow, Arena, chrysanthemum, the pistil, Brown Shell and serpentine. The palm, willow and chrysanthemums are very common and have long-burning elements to form coils. The cover is brown Noise Maker. Other variants are self-explanatory, except the medallion, which is a circle of exploding shells in the order, the pistil, which is like the chrysanthemum, but with a different color center, and serpentine. Serpentine is the dramatic shift of tone and breath of fire that made the stars.
Colors from different inorganic compounds known issuers. The hardest fact, because the blue color spreads very quickly. Green is the most easy to produce and will last longer. Red, orange, yellow and have a shelf life longer short, but they are quite clear and easy to manufacture. For those who have an interest in chemistry, the red comes chloride, strontium hydroxide, strontium orange. Other colors are: sodium yellow, green, chloride barium, and blue and purple copper chloride. Blue, the most difficult to produce, requires a fuel and an oxidant system.
There, in a word, the whole process. If my father had called and told me I did not understand a word he says. But I know I would feel cheated, somehow. It's like letting the genie of the bottle. Once gone, never exactly the same.
