Lab Disasters Part II: Explosions!

Lab Disasters Part II: Explosions!

Michael Bay, if you’re listening, we made this episode for you. To the rest of our listeners, we agree movie explosions can be great, but in this episode, we’re discussing the real-life science behind why some chemicals go boom and the dangers associated with them when they do. We go into detail about two terrifying, recent explosions, one in a Texas Tech laboratory and the other at the port of Beirut. *** To see pictures of damage from the Texas Tech explosion, visit this link: https://sma.nasa.gov/docs/default-source/safety-messages/safetymessage-2012-07-09-texastechlaboratoryexplosion.pdf?sfvrsn=e9ae1ef8_6 For pictures of the damage associated with the Port of Beirut incident, visit this link: https://www.bbc.com/news/world-middle-east-53668493 ** You can find our sources for this episode at spookysciencesisters.com. ** While you’re here, we’d love it if you could subscribe to our YouTube channel! There you’ll find extra video content related to the podcast, and Meagan will be going live from time to time to play spooky games or just hang out with listeners!
