单选题Modern science fiction movies are often known for their breathtaking special Line effects. These effects can show us a glimpse of the future, and frequently have tremendous dramatic force. Sometimes, however, special effects can leave the science behind to focus only on the fiction. One of the worst offenders is a film's (5) depiction of explosions in outer space. On the Earth, explosions occur in some form of matter, usually air or water. The change in energy level in the matter creates the energy differential known as a shock wave. The wave is what creates the characteristic "boom" of an explosion. Since there is very little matter in outer space, the energy transfer never takes (10) place. Consequently, there is no sound. Further, because air and water are not perfect conduits for energy, they measurably slow the travel of the explosive force. This allows the explosion to unfold in relatively slow motion, which renders it visible to the eye. In space, there is nothing to slow the energy, which would disperse almost immediately. The effect for an observer would be a bright (15) flash, gone almost as soon as it appeared, and nothing like the great billowing space clouds shown in the movies, suggesting that reality is insufficiently dramatic for cinematic representation.
