Restroom. Obviously life on board a fighter jet is cramped, and there isn't a lot of room to move your body, much less use the restroom. In addition to water, on every flight I carry an item called a pittle pack. As its been stated, its a plastic bag with powder in it that reacts to urine.
Mercury is a metal that is liquid at room temperature. When combined with gold or silver, it becomes viscous, its consistency becoming similar to that of butter. Mercury gilding is the process in which mercury is mixed with gold to make an amalgam that is applied to the surface of an object.hen combined with gold or silver, it becomes viscous, its consistency becoming similar to that of butter.

Mercury occurs in deposits throughout the world mostly as cinnabar (mercuric sulfide). The red pigment vermilion, a pure form of mercuric sulfide, is mostly obtained by reaction of mercury (produced by reduction from cinnabar) with sulfur.ercury dissolves many other metals such as gold and silver to form amalgams. Iron is an exception, and iron flasks have traditionally been used to trade mercury. Several other first row transition metals with the exception of manganese, copper and zinc are reluctant to form amalgams.
