Something that struck me as pretty amazing was that if you can get liquid nitrogen, you're already cold enough to get liquid oxygen (in fact separating the two may be part of the process here, I don't know)
Anyway, liquid oxygen is pretty crazy blue and amazing in its own right.
- HPsquared 6y agoDefinitely a hazard to be aware of - liquid oxygen can be a lot more dangerous than liquid nitrogen, especially if you're not expecting it!
- m4rtink 6y agoYeah - talk with a couple scientists after a liquid nitrogen experiments demonstration. They mentioned even just liquid air is dangerous, as the liquid oxygen in it makes many hydrocarbon materials flamable and even explosive in some cases.
