<p><b>New page</b></p><div>Magnasite-nitron tablets were an item of 23rd century survival gear sometimes found in medical kits. They were small (about 0.5cm), white, round tablets containing compressed chemicals. Placed on a hard surface and struck with moderate force, they would ignite, burning with a thin flame approximately 25cm tall. Such a flame was chiefly useful as a light source in darkened areas – it was too small to be an effective heat source. Their small size made them more useful than a portable light in some situations.<br />
<br />
In 2267, while fleeing Capellan pursuers, Kirk, Spock, and Leonard McCoy used such a tablet to illuminate their cave refuge, making McCoy's obstetric tasks easier and safer. (TOS: "Friday's Child") <br />
