Abstract The future generation of inhabited spacecraft will have a significantly different cabin environment from the present ones, characterized by low pressure and elevated oxygen concentration. This new atmosphere and the low-velocity gas flows in microgravity provide distinct conditions for the combustion of the solid materials used, and their influence on material flammability is of particular interest in the fire safety of spacecraft. Experiments have been conducted to investigate the effects of sub-atmospheric pressure (
