How could one tell if there were toxic hypergolic fuel residue in the debris?

colechristensen•1h ago

One wouldn't easily. But assuming it may is a necessary precaution. Hydrazine is common and harmful in rather small amounts.

The standard advice is to keep your distance and contact the authorities. The debris can easily have low enough level of hypergolics to be unnoticeable, but high enough to cause health problems
