Steam just above atmospheric pressure ( all that the boiler could stand ) was introduced into the lower half of the cylinder beneath the piston during the gravity-induced upstroke ; the steam was then condensed by a jet of cold water injected into the steam space to produce a partial vacuum ; the pressure differential between the atmosphere and the vacuum on either side of the piston displaced it downwards into the cylinder, raising the opposite end of a rocking beam to which was attached a gang of gravity-actuated reciprocating force pumps housed in the mineshaft.

The liquid water was heated to induce evaporation, sparks were fired between the electrodes to simulate lightning through the atmosphere and water vapor, and then the atmosphere was cooled again so that the water could condense and trickle back into the first flask in a continuous cycle.

There is no discrete boundary between the Earth's atmosphere and space, as the atmosphere gradually attenuates with increasing altitude.

This may cause a chemical reaction between water and fuel that produces hydrogen gas which can explode after mixing with air, with severe contamination consequences, since fuel rod material may still be exposed to the atmosphere from this process.

False charges of heresy and sodomy set aside, the guilt or innocence of the Templars is one of the more difficult historical problems, partly because of the atmosphere of hysteria that had built up in the preceding generation ( marked by habitually intemperate language and extravagant denunciations exchanged between temporal rulers and churchmen ), partly because the subject has been embraced by conspiracy theorists and pseudo-historians.

It is most widely accepted that stromatolites from the late Archean and through the middle Proterozoic eon were mostly formed by massive colonies of cyanobacteria ( formerly known as blue-green algae ), and that the oxygen byproduct of their photosynthetic metabolism first resulted in earth ’ s massive banded iron formations and subsequently oxygenated earth ’ s atmosphere.
