How Do Fireworks Work? | Neil deGrasse Tyson Explains...
How do Fireworks work? On this explainer, Neil deGrasse Tyson and comic co-host Chuck Nice explore pyrotechnics and how we get those colorful explosive displays on Independence Day.
Learn about the physics of an explosion. How do you create a shockwave for that classic fireworks sound? We explore how different colors are achieved, magnesium strips, and Bunsen burners from science class. What does it mean if something’s “red hot”? Plus, what’s Neil’s favorite firework?
