How is the Olympic flame carried in airplanes?

Yes, natty little method this. They split it up and only send a tiny piece of the Olympic flame in a special container which is then flown to whether it needs to go

Yes it is.\nOnly if they are carrying the torch for the Olympics.

Nothing is indestructable, everything burns or melts at a certain temperature. even aerogel, the most fire resistant synthetic material, has a melting point of about 2000 degrees farenheit. This website should help clear it up, \n\nhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Black_Box_%28transportation%29\n\nbut basically it is a quarter of an inch thick steel with fireproof material like kevlar underneath. it is a flight data recorder and voice recorder that can store flight data to tell what went wrong and voice recorder to tell if it was a terrorist attack/highjack or determine if it was a human error. old ones used to have moving parts and failed occasianally, but newer digital ones have no moving parts, hold more information, and never fail that i have heard about.

You don't go across, you go around.\n\nAnd, it depends on the type of plane.  The space shuttle can do it a couple times in a day.

I can only state what the U.S. would do.  The U.S. will not allow any aersol paint through secrity or in your checked baggage.  It will be confiscated for what they call, "hazmat".

Meteors enter the atmosphere at speeds ranging from 11 km/sec (25,000 mph), to 72 km/sec (160,000 mph!). When the meteoroid collides with air molecules, its high level of kinetic energy rapidly ionizes and excites a long, thin column of atmospheric atoms along the meteoroid's path, creating a flash of light visible from the ground below. This column, or meteor trail, is usually less than 1 meter in diameter, but will be tens of kilometers long

Technically you can't even have it at all, so officially the answer would be no. However, domestic travel is not too concerned with what items you're taking with you (as long as they're not dangerous).  I seriously doubt anyone would know or be looking for it (or care, for that matter). Just don't smoke it on the plane and you'll be fine.

The air surrounding the fire is heated. \n\nHot air is less dense than cold air.\n\nLess dense air goes up; while cold air replaces the hot air and is heated,\n\nThus a convection of air current is set up continuously giving the flame the obvious figure.\n\nBy blowing air through a nozzle we can change the direction of flame.

They primarily used flint, and carried around a small box full of tinder.  This was called a "tinderbox"..  it's a box with flint inlaid in the wood, a stone to scrape against the flint, and a small store of wood shavings or wood dust that would catch fire easily.\n\nThese days you're better off carrying a box of waterproof matches, though.  Or a cigarette lighter -- works on the same principle, actually.  Flint striker and a store of flammable material to make the flame.  :)

Fireman's carry works pretty good.  I learned that in wrestling.

There is no wing shaped damage to the right and left of the hole...  Since the Pentagon is built very strongly, It seems to me that the wings would have sheared off upon impact and there would be many pieces lying in front of the building on either side of the hole.  There isn't.  Commercial jet liners don't 'vaporize'... That's preposterous.  Water vaporizes.  Liquid nitrogen vaporizes.  Aluminum and titanium do not.  They eventually will melt, but due to the quick response of the firefighters, I doubt the fire got hot enough for long enough to melt an entire plane.  Even then, there would be many tons of melted metal to pick up.  I'm not a conspiracy theorist, but I'm no idiot either.  There is something wrong with the government's version of what happened at the Pentagon.

Since security in AirPorts are wild right now, i think you should ask then airline your traveling with, a long time ago i know we could but it goes in cargo section of the plane, Ammunition are another story, since they have the ability to harm the plane in mid air, when i use to travel to the usa i usually bought Ammo and just hide it in my stuff, but now since Xray's are use it will be likely to be found.

Here is what I was able to gather:\n\nIn electrothermal atomization, the atom cloud is released into a relatively small volume of gas. In contrast, in flame atomization, the atom cloud is diluted by the high flow rate of gases and by expansion of gases during combustion;\n\n\nWith flame atomization, the liquid sample is aspirated into the flame by the venturi effect of the combustion gasses flowing through the burner. The flow of sample into the flame is typically in the range of several milliliters per minute. For this reason, flame AA requires milliliter-sized samples. With furnace atomization, a microliter-sized portion of sample is pipetted into a small, open-ended graphite cylinder, which is located in the light beam of the instrument, and the cylinder is then heated by applying a high electrical potential across the cylinder. The vapor cloud thus produced is contained within the cylinder. The result of this method of heating is not only the consumption of much less sample, but the generation of a much more concentrated sample vapor, which translates to much higher sensitivity. The drawbacks of this technology (electrothermal atomization) as currently practiced is that it is more expensive (due mainly to the cost of the graphite tubes), and takes significantly longer to perform an analysis than with flame atomization (minutes versus seconds), and the graphite tubes, which must be replaced relatively frequently, are expensive.\n\nI am not a Science expert and all I did was search for information - I do not own up to the answer. I hope it was helpful.

It's only illegal if you carry it with you onto an airplane. But it's ok to have one on ground.

To begin with, it's not smoke!\nThe fuel burned in a jet engine is paraffin (kerosene if you are American). Now paraffin is a compound of carbon and hydrogen; the carbon burns to carbon dioxide - which you can't see - and the hydrogen burns to water vapour. At very high altitudes this water vapour condenses and then freezes into ice crystals. This is what you see ... a 'contrail' or a 'condensation trail'.
