      Since there is no air in space, many people ask whether it is possible to shoot in space. The answer is impossible. The functions of the modern guns we see are similar to those of rockets. Firing a gun means we make an explosion between the bullets. The bullet contains the required amount of fuel. As a result of the explosion in it, the smoke began to rise rapidly from it. As a result, the bullet moves forward according to Newton’s third law of reaction. Just like a rocket. As a result, even if there is no air, the rocket does not have any difficulty moving in space. Similarly, there will be no difficulty in the shooting.

      But now the question is, shot after shot and what will happen to you? If the temperature in space is more than 100 degrees Celsius, the bullet will explode by itself. And if the temperature is below -173 degrees centigrade, the metal structure of the gun will wobble. As soon as you shoot, your bullet will shatter into pieces. Yet if the temperature is favorable and you shoot, it can be, like embracing your death a bit.

      Since there is no air in space, according to Newton’s first law, your bullet can continue in space unhindered. And if it goes like this, the bullet from the back will make a full circle like a satellite and it will blow your head. Not only that. We know that when a gun is fired, the gun will also push you back according to Newton’s law of reaction. Since there is no air, there is no one to stop you. As a result, you will be knocked out at a much higher speed. If it is towards Earth, the value of velocity will be much higher. And if you run at this speed, the friction of your body with the air can raise your body and the surrounding air to thousands of degrees Celsius. So that it is impossible to find the ashes of your body. But if luck is too good you can expect to survive with the help of your slingshot. In that case, the International Space Station can help you a bit.
