Fire isn’t actually a thing—it’s a process!
What we see as flames is just the visible part of a chemical reaction called combustion.
When fuel, oxygen, and heat combine, they create a self-sustaining reaction that releases energy in the form of
light and heat.
That’s why fire has no mass or shape of its own!
It’s not an object, but an event.

Fire can create its own weather!
In extreme wildfires, the heat rises so fast that it forms towering clouds called pyrocumulus.
These clouds can generate lightning, which can spark even more fires.
Some of the most intense wildfires even create fire tornadoes—whirling columns of flame that can reach hundreds of
feet into the sky.
Fire isn’t just destructive; it’s a force of nature with its own climate!

Fire burns in different colors depending on the chemicals involved.
Copper makes flames turn green, lithium produces red, and sodium gives off a bright yellow glow.
This is the science behind fireworks!
Even space has its own fire behavior—without gravity, flames burn in perfect spheres instead of flickering.
Fire is more than just heat; it’s a dazzling display of chemistry in action!

Fire is one of the oldest tools used by humans, dating back over a million years!
Early humans used it for warmth, protection, and cooking, which helped them digest food more efficiently.
Some scientists even believe fire played a role in human evolution by allowing us to develop larger brains.
Without fire, civilization as we know it wouldn’t exist!
