Re: Tea kettle question.
Thanks for the correction. As a consequence I looked "plasma" up and had my memory refreshed on stuff I had forgotten somewhere between science lessons at school and now. But does that mean the sun has a surface on which a kettle (assuming it can withstand the heat) can be rested upon after all?Xamonas Chegwé wrote:The sun is composed of plasma, not gas.
