Halo Violates The Laws of Physics
I just finished reading [i]The Cole Protocol[/i] (Quite addictive) and one part stood out to me. The part where Captain Keyes and the ODSTs jump into outer space and use their battle rifles to distance themselves from the ship. The author tried to be intelligent and use Newton's Third Law of Physics to support this, however, when one thinks about it, guns would not even work in space at all because there is no atmosphere.

[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] gsprad7878 the powder requires oxygen to ignite and theres no oxygen in space because its a vacumn therefore guns wouldnt work in space. [/quote] The gun powder already has oxygen in it, vacuum would only make firing a bullet more effective as the only thing affecting it would be a planet's gravity well, otherwise it would go on forever until hitting something.
